Putting Art into Your Nature Photography with Arthur Morris

- With today’s amazing photographic gear that includes camera bodies with surreal autofocus that can routinely produce superb image files in the right hands and fast, sharp lenses (including and especially the amazing super-telephotos) creating images of various birds, animals, flowers, and landscapes, is pretty much child’s play. Anyone can do it. In this program, Arthur Morris, internationally noted bird photographer and educator, will teach you to take your images to the next level. You will learn to identify good situations, to create pleasing backgrounds, to photograph action and behavior, to choose the best perspective, to read and use the light, when and how to create pleasing blurs, and to consistently create dramatic, evocative images with contest-winning potential.
This program is well-illustrated with several hundred of Artie’s spectacular images, many published around the world above his most fitting credit line: BIRDS AS ART.

Arthur Morris GOAT, a true visionary and absolute legend. all ways a pleasure coming back to watch these events. outstanding amount of knowledge one must take from him.
Art you take the most beautiful photo's i have seen in my 67 years of life. thank you so much. Thanx ric
Your pictures, Arthur, are truly remarkable. You capture the essence of these amazing birds with your photos. Much respect.
Perfect illustration of the difference between a great photographer and great presenter...one does not denote the other
This is a genius with the camera, ok so he embellishes a little-- but with his credentials- why not? I think some of what Artie is saying is: This worked for me, and it will work for you too. I got a lot out of this particularly about "seeing the picture before it happens" (as he explained with the backlit lamas). He said to come back in a couple of hours.he had a vision of what the Lamas would look like, backlit against the sun, on a hill. This is the thread I have found amongst all the greats- Know your gear, set it up for light and scene- and follow your composure or instinct, creativity, inspiration; or whatever word you wish to use. BTW this is where the art comes into play. Artie - keep rockin'.
Artie, brilliant work and presentation. Your genius is a constant leading example.
Many tanks Jim. a
Arthur Morris is a top notch photographer no doubt. I have found that every "class" he has done for b and h on TH-cam is really just a show and tell story time. If you're looking for an educational video, skip this video and save yourself the almost 2 hours of show and tell.
It's so funny as he starts the 'class' with not caring how you got the photo but just the photo, that's what's important. The rest of the class was how he gets the photos...
TOdoubleD17 That's a very important way to learn. Unless you've closed your mind.
If you could watch that an not learn anything you must surely be dumber than a dead skunk. Enjoy. a
Arthur Morris The 'Story' is everything IMO! I took my first photo back in 1954 so I know a thing or two because I've been doing a thing or two... The way you said it was like it was nothing to the photo...?!
Arthur Morris well now I've learned you insult people. As the public speaker/figure that you are, feedback is typically welcomed not met with comparisons to being "dumber than a dead skunk".
The flamingo against the blackground.🔥
fantastic talk arthur could listen all day
Art, love seeing your work and hearing about your thought process behind the photos. Good luck in the effort to defeat the proposal to deny photographer access to Florida birds.
Rock on, Mister Morris!
I watch these to fall asleep lol
Always excited when I see you've released another video...........great photography,
The way he frames his pictures is better than any paintings i have ever seen
Thanks Sree. That's where the art comes in :)

Arthur Morris Thank you sir, for replying to my comment.
You are an inspiration for budding bird enthusiasts like me.
I couldn't get past the first 10 minutes of this video. As I got bored with you talking about yourself,and how good you are.
Great video! I learned a lot from it ! :)
Congrats Artie...
Thanks Owen.
It isn't raging if you can do it. Great work

I don't want to watch a video on nature photography set in a classroom I want to watch Doug Gardner out there on Natural History Channel.
Two diff things! You can’t compare. Doug focuses more on outdoor experience and videos, photos are okay. Artie photos are another level.
Well presented. Thank you.
YAW :)
I love Arties photos, I've watched a lot of his videos and learned a lot, so thank you! One question, when he says high ISO what do you think he's at? 1k+?
In the other lectures he usually doesn’t exceed 800 ISO. I try to keep it under 800 also. Even with the best cameras we have today, I just hate dealing with noise reduction if I can avoid it, but 1600 ISO can still work well with the right conditions
My vies is that people need to clearly define what "wildlife" or Nature" photography they do and based on that go research what equipment they need and want. In some parts of the world, wildlife refers to mostly birds and smaller animals and insects etc. In other parts like Africa there are obviously lots of birds but wildlife is big and slower moving. even Lions in a fight or Cheetah chasing an impala during a hunt of most of the big raptors. Today there is so much emphasis on long telephoto lenses, high frame rates and all the latest subject and eye detection focus systems. They all have a place and some people need this. After yrs of nature and wildlife photography I now subscribe to simplicity. Less equipment, selective shooting and taking this at a slower pace. From the last few excursions I came back with less than 30% images compared to past such trips, travelled lighter and spend a lot less time culling images, shot at max 8 fps. I hade more tip level images. I enjoyed more time watching the wildlife and study behaviour and allowed me to pick special moments. But we are all different, that is what makes photography such a great art.
Love this fella!!

I am one of those people that don't read the blog for one simple reason: the black background with white writing is really hard on the eyes. I don't doubt the great content, but don't like the migraine it triggers by struggling to read it. :-(
From these classes it sounds like his trips are to get you a decent shot opportunity but stay here and shut up so I can go in close and get the better shot . Seems like it should be let me help you get a better shot than I got today .
WOW Artie, great photos but you're really into yourself man, like really in love with yourself like - Narcissistic?
This is great for people who have plenty of money.
If you carefully watched the video, at least 30% of his pictures he shared here are taken in Florida/California. You can get a decent camera rig for under 2000 or so and get decent pictures. You don’t have to spend a lot. And by the way photography is expensive hobby, so set your expectations according to your budget.
We need captions/subtitles on these videos. Thanks.
Not sure where the "art" part came into this presentation or indeed general nature photography, it was mainly birds. The images were superb but in my opinion it was really just a show and tell session and a bit of an ego trip.
Thanks for taking the time to leave your flattering comment. a
You're welcome
R0swell, how about you go make something of yourself. Nobody cares about your opinion at this point
I clicked on the link for his blog, but the link doesn't work in Chrome or Firefox.
Hi Kay, Here's a link to to his main site: www.birdsasart.com/
Thank you :-)
You know Artie...I think that in your long and successful career you missed the biggest lesson of them all: There is no greatness without modesty.
Artie is genuine. He does not feign modesty. Sure he advocates for himself / a self promoter. But he is doing it gently. If you think about it, he is the one who had to prepare a 90 minute fact and picture packed presentation AND he is giving all his information, garnered over a 30+years career, to an audience TOTALLY for free!! What more do you want from the guy?
I beg to differ. I have met him personally when he was on an IPT and I happened to be there at the same spot in fort de soto in Florida, he shared me 3-4 tricks to get good pictures of terns etc. all for free. He even let me a take selfie with him. So you’re wrong.
you have to mention apurcher, speed and iso then better
Don't really understand all the comments about how this is a slideshow and not a guide, beyond talking about composition, exposure, and mood there is very little ways to describe art verbally without showing it. Try describing a Pollock or a Warhol without the actually imagery and the magic is lost.
How many videos is B&H going to do with Arthur Morris, its the same story/pics over and over again. There are many other bird/wildlife photographers who you can be showing. More variety in the bird/wildlife photographers videos would be nice. 😏
Hey RingWraith, Thanks so much for taking time out of your busy day to leave such a nice comment.
Well, think about it. Effective and popular content results in more similar content. If you haven't done so, go to Artie's blog at birdsasart the dot and the com. And to birdphotographers and the dot and the NET. You'll see lots of valuable information, with ads, but no direct costs. And at BPN, one of the best critique sites on the internet.
If you have found other bird photographers who create videos at about the same quality level as Artie's, please let me know. I like Glenn Bartley's work. And some others who do not put out many videos. I am eager to find more. Perhaps that's the dilemma at B&H as well.
Arthur Morris is the best thats why they ask him to do the talks i never tire of watching him.
Can anybody earn so much money with birding these days even to can afford the in this video mentioned insanely expensive lenses?
If you want to see his work, this is it but you learn nothing for your next shoot.
Really? Then you should not be watching it. This is for intermediate level photographers on how to improve and come up with unique compositions and not to learn how to set your camera settings for these pictures!!
You are making money off the birds...the Audubon people are doing vital research to understand their needs long-term...there is a huge difference here. Plus, everyone is beginning to have great cameras, and crowds of people all want photos like yours. If the nestlings are disturbed, then no birds. Your righteous statements surprise me...don't you want the birds there in the future? Why would any wildlife photographer, who is conveying the beauty of these animals to the world want to jeopardize even one. I am not a rabid animal rights person, but someone who grew up in the Everglades...the drop in bird numbers is precipitous. Pointing a finger at someone else when there is something you could do to diminish disruption is astonishing in itself. Passing on this lack of values is even more so.
