    Really nice place to go, especially for birders. I've been dying to go there for years. Next time when I'm in area I definitely go. You got some good shots. Thanks for sharing the experience 🙂

      Thank you Thomas. It is a quite place that will take some time to explore but it is worth it 😊

    Winter in Florida is wonderful for a wildlife photographer. My work allows me to travel there and I am never disappointed.

      It sometimes even feels like cheating going there when there is some much to see and take photos of 😊 Thanks for commenting 👍

      Thank you so much Ann👍😊. Get out there early and take "one step every second", bring water and some sweets and make it an all day out 😊 😉

    Nice outing Mik. You photographed a very a wonderful selection of critters, and the otter kept a close eye on you. Most enjoyable to view.🙂🙂

      Thank you so much. Make sure to watch my first video from Corkscrew. It is taken at my visit in 2017.

    Thanks for your video work. I am planning my first wildlife photography trip to Ft. Myers area in Late December 2020. Very nicely done.

      Thank you so much. Ft Myers area has a lot to offer if you are in to wildlife watching/photography. I hope you will have a nice time there and maybe post some videos afterwords 😊

    At 12:21 you have a photo of a gator shot at ISO160, 600mm, f/7.1, 1/100 sec. I am wondering why you didn't choose a wider aperture and/or higher ISO in order to get a faster shutter speed. 1/100 at 600mm seems kind of slow.

      Hello Graham and thank you for an interesting question. I think that question has several answers that combined led to that setting. First off it was taken while on a tripod so the seemingly slow shutter speed didn't bother me that much since the gator was standing still. Knowing that I would crop the image meant that I preferred a lower ISO than a higher shutter speed to keep the image quality as high as possible by reducing the noise level as much as possible. Even thou I knew that I would crop the image, the gator is at a slight angle so there could potentially be a depth of field issue if the focus was a bit off so hence the smaller aperture. I hope that answers your question and if not just get back to me :-)

      @@MikSwePhoto thanks for the explanation which makes sense. I'll be visiting there in July and will probably bring either a monopod or tripod as well as a 150-600 Sigma lens.

      @@GrahamPhotog A monopod will probably be sufficient unless you are aiming for long exposures. I carry a tripod mostly for the sake of filming. It tends to be a bit jerky if I don't use that 😊 Let me know how it went 👍
