As a woman who started nature photography in my early 60’s. Getting on the ground is easy, getting up holding the camera is a lot more challenging! I literally started doing strength training to do just this! Being fairly new, it’s good to see those put into use in the field. I really liked it that these are demonstrated on site and not from behind a desk! I need to get better at using the flip screen. Some of my favorite places have reeds along the shore making it hard to get a really low angle! Thanks for sharing your expertise!
Lol yes getting down is the easy part, that's the beauty of editing, I will have to post an unedited clip of me rolling around trying to get up after on an hour on the cold ground. Great idea on the training, whenever I hear people say they can't wait to get into wildlife photography when they retire, I don't think they realize how physically demanding it can be. I am glad you liked the video, I always try and shoot in the field if the weather is permitting. Cheers
Great video mate. Very informative, easy for everyone to understand. Once photographers start thinking about the angles of their shots .. their shots improve immeasurably👍
One of best lessons I learned is background is as or more important than the subject itself. Once I learned that my photography improved greatly. Great lesson
