Video

I am a serious (I suppose) amateur. I don't know how one would make a living out of wildlife photography, but I have a lot of respect for those who do. Images of animals are wonderous, but very few people actually want to hang it on a wall.

Yet again, another great video Richard. A subject which is also my favourite to photograph and even just observe. I’m currently working on a Dipper video and I’d love to see you produce another one of your amazing Dipper videos. Keep up the great work and look forward to watching your next instalment. All the best, Tom 👍

definitely a bucket list subject for myself, I enjoyed your take of the adventure, well done!

Lovely!

Nice one Rich! Enjoyable as ever and some lovely shots at the end :) Impressed at how calm you were when talking about all those hounds, think I’d have struggled to keep my cool that much haha

Thank you for sharing your experiences. Your images are wonderful!

Love this, well done Richard 👏

I’m glad you shared this video!

Great video Rich, nice to have you back on YT thoroughly enjoy your films

Flippin awesome Richard! ❤

Bird life on the river or any other wildlife Bull finches are my favorite birds if you could film those Grey wagtails and Dippers by running water . That too ?. Congratulations to you both having your child.

Wonderful images!!! 😍👏👏

I’m an old dude who has lived overseas for 30 yrs and as such have never really got to know our beautiful country so I bought an old T4 and doing a total resto, but you know what, I respect the basic build you have done and congratulate you.

Exceptional content...Congrats!!!

Great vid what mpg do you get 😎👍

Great video.. I would like to see a video on photographing Red Foxes, in daylight

So lets talk about the real star.....your dog! 😅 Fergus is just adorable!

Great video ! Not really photographed hares but would like to! I’d probably say a pair of gloves added to it as we know hands and big reflective signs! Probably wouldn’t bother with a camo head net though or screens can be good too 👍

Great video Richard and for me great timing as just moved up to Northumberland where there are high numbers and defo on my bucket list. 👍

Please would you consider making a video on summer wildlife subjects? Maybe Red Grouse in the blooming heather moorlands? In the UK it feels like a harder time of year to find good subjects but perhaps I'm just not sure what to be looking for!

I love that you are sharing the story behind the image

That's pretty awesome ❤

Camo socks 😂 Another great video Richard👍

Brilliant video mate, and fantastic advice that can be used with many other species too 👌🏻

Great video and sound advice. I really like your concentration on the actual subject at hand IE photographing wildlife and not going on about gear. I doubt if there is any camera lens combo that cannot be used to successfully capture good wildlife images. There are far too many gear nerds on CZcams and your approach is quite refreshing.

Great video and subscribed after viewing! I regularly see hares in the fields just down the road from me, so I will be attempting to put these tips to use! Personally, I just enjoy 'in the field' type vlogs. Seeing someone's process photographing whatever they enjoy because I think if it's a subject you enjoy, then it comes across more, and that enthusiasm can be contagious. Keep up the good work!👏

Nice video! I'd love to see some more videos from the cairngorms next time you're up there, or from mull.

Excellent video! There’s so much that can be applied to any type of wildlife photography. Thank you!!

Great video as always Rich. Really enjoyed this format. In terms of what next, how about finding and photographing river otters? Do you think they would be any easier or more difficult than photographing them in places like Mull? In the meantime, for other viewers and subscribers, book a workshop with Rich. He’s so knowledgeable, affable and genuine and I always thoroughly enjoy being out looking for wildlife with Rich, even if I’ve turned into a jinx! 😂

I still have my v Canon 5d Mark IV and not ready too change! Even bought a back up! If it works well, why change! Cheers

Hooray! Someone who got everything right in a wildlife video…no technical waffle, no blowing your own trumpet, no blathering on and on without getting to the point. Everything covered just enough to be instructional and enjoyable…I am surrounded by fields with hares in, but I’ve put off trying to capture images because most I see from the country lanes and just will not wander onto farmland to get closer. Armed with this information I now feel more confident to approach some local farmers. Thank you!…..oh and one of my favourite but most elusive subjects are Wrens. I hear them (you can’t miss them singing that’s for certain…), but actually seeing one, never mind shooting one has so far eluded me. So would really appreciate any advice you have, along the lines of the video here…….

For me you did everything right. The video is the right length, entertaining and you know what you`re talking about.

Great video more field craft tips for birds of prey and otters etc

Nicely done Richard I can relate to all of what you've mentioned in that video but all the bad aching backs,necks and wet muddy clothing etc is well worth all the effort. As you said,it all comes good eventually, sometimes very easily and the moments spent with these animals are just magical even if you don't get any images. Keep up the good work mate 👍 👏

Such a great informative video with alot of useful tips, I'm now ready to take a my first Brown Hare photo thanks to you Richard 😊. How about a video on taking photos of dragonflies!

Really lovely video, thank you. How refreshing to see a video that’s not caught up in technical detail but concentrating more on nature and enjoying the moment! Sometimes the best photos we took were the ones from our childhood that are technically not good. I think that’s because they evoke memories of the sheer thrill we got from them, knowing we’d been clever enough to capture a totally natural moment that was a heart warming image and something we achieved nonetheless with skill. My first one was an image taken with a basic tele-ektra camera of a tiger laid down behind glass at London Zoo. I put the camera tight to the glass to avoid flare. The thrill I got when it was processed and I collected it from the camera shop was awesome!

Lovely!

Great video and I 100% agree, the feeling of just be outthere in nature is amazing and even if you don't get the results you wanted its great just being out!

You can get the green mold off, by spraying it with White Vinegar.

Foxes are my favourite animals, that picture looks incredible! I once saw a fox in my grandma’s garden, but when I tried to take a picture, it ran away really quickly; then another day, I saw it again and got some pictures, they aren’t that good though. You have skills getting pictures like that! Keep up the good work!

😂😂 cracking image mate

Great vlog as always, you can’t beat a Border, I just wish we could let our border of lead like that. Don’t get me wrong, he’s really good off the lead, until he spots a bird squirrel or anything that moves fast and children, then he’s off like a rocket, with typical bored hearing.

Will you be a vlog on this mate

Such a great video. Looking forward to seeing the hide next time

Loved this one! Looking forward to seeing more from here, awesome hare pictures too!

Nice to see a bit of my home county although this looks a lot flatter than my home town of Buxton. Lived down here in Somerset for 34 years and we have truly settled. Thank you for the video Richard.

I thought this was Prince William. The voice and the face.
