How were you able to get this close? Like with the bighorn sheep how did you know when to cut it off and not get closer? I understand that you can get pretty close easily, but is there really that much to be worried about when approaching things like bighorn sheep? How close have you been able to get to moose and elk in Glacier?
@MrFloppywaffles i move close very slowly and make myself visible from a distance so that I dont startle the animal.in national parks animals are around people a lot more, especially in the area I was in in the video.
Thank U ,good un-common,common sense, wildlife is a great challenge still practising at the Zoo ,which is great fun .....except 4 the fence wire ! Thanks 4 your effort!
Hey! This is pretty neat video! I love video that look like they are "Live" especialy in nature were the bees and flies are set free!!! Good work my friend and continue.... DanTheMan
I have liked and do appreciate what you are trying to do and applaud you for it but for your nature shots you need to get lower to get a better perspective.
@THEHAMM3T Why? Nikon has the 200-400! Nikons and Canons bodies are virtually the same. As for lenses, yes Nikon lacks in things like the 70-200 F4 for budget but Nikon has every wildlife lens Canon has plus what is likely the best, the 200-400!
I feel sorry for the 66 dislikes. But anyway hats off for you efforts bro. All your videos are really great and helpful i have learnt a lot from your teachings. Thx a lot
how close do you usually get to the wildlife, wolves and bears seem like they could attack you or something. id like to get into this type of photography but thats one thing I'm afraid of
@AustinAlexanderAW I have gotten pretty close to many large animals but that is rare and the animal comes to me if it gets close. I would never approach to close to a wild animal. In national parks wildlife is general pretty use to people (especially yellowstone and glacier national park). What ever you do you must stay calm when close to these animals and NEVER surprise them.
Look, there were wildlife photographer before digital, before af-s lens, before 12,800 iso.. Here is a good exampl, look at F.Lanting book, "Okavango", edited in 1989. It's all made with nikon FE2, manual lens, no auto flash, and It's full of color, dynamism, flash + available light mix, it's terrific. I agree that big lense, afs and high iso helps, but you could also make very good stuff with simple gear. Lots of them used to say, It's all in there (pointing their head).
To be a good wildlife photographer, need a bit of talent (15%), a little more patience and lots of money to buy the best super-tele lenses and travel.
I disagree on the note that you saying " these wild-life photographers take great picture not because they are good but because they use good equipment ", the equipment plays 50 % role in the picture however I believe wild-life photography requires a lot of skill and determination, not every one can do it.
@snabilrizvi I am not arguing that it takes a lot of skill but longer lenses and faster cameras do help to get more wildlife shots that others with slower equipment can not.
@QQQQcon Yup I agree, I visited your website boy I was astonished, I'm thinking of getting some prints of the pictures that you've shot. Keep it coming =)
@QQQQcon Totally agree. I've had many cameras over the years and lenses - I know have a good kit (D7000 and some expensive glass) Has my photogrpahy got better, perhaps....have my pictures got better - yes because the lens and camera is just so much sharper and the DOF I can get now I couldn't get on my older lenses. I gave my Nikon D7000 and F2.8 70-200 to my wife and she took a series of fantastic professional looking pics of my son and I - she couldn't have done that with a £100 compact.
@jimvuraot04 you can add it to the back of professional telephoto lens and it multiples the focal length, mine is a 1.7x teleconverter so when attached to my 70-200mm it turns it into a 120mm-340mm lens. It also affects f/stop for ex. it changes an f/2.8 lesn to f/4.5
How successful are you in photography? Great shots but are you able to make a living off of just that? I'm curious because I'm 17 and I'm thinking about going into photography in the future after college and would eventually(7-15 years) like to make a living off of it. Thanks in advance.

Damn, not much work where your at huh??? We actually have to work at getting close to our critters, seems you just walk right up to them!! lol . . . you take a mean picture though!
I have a problem or dilemma ... I have the Nikon D60 but i want to upgrade my Body... I am thinking about the D300s or D7000 The D7000 is a new consumer product with new sensor, more mega pixels ...
But the D300s is part of the professionel nikon products: better weather sealing more durable, ...
@RubenCraninx I'd say that the nikon d300s is the better choise, i got one my own and u dont need any more mega pixels the 300s is really enough! And the body is much better in your hand and as u say your self its a professional camera. Its REALLY great!!!
@heppemil well at the moment the D300s is my number 1. is saw it next to the d7000 and the body is no bigger than my D60. As I am in aviation and sports photography i am often in the "big" lens category,so a bigger body would come in handy :D
Postive of the D7000 would be D-movie autofocus (as nikon says) but i haven't seen much of that ...
Your tutorials are really good. You explain yourself well and get your point across in a very humble manner. I plan to enroll in college for photography very soon and your videos have helped my confidence in many ways. Thank you. If I have any questions in the future, I hope that you would lend an ear and a little of your knowledge. Thanks again. Good Luck to you on your shoots.
Im about to buy a camera as well, and i`am considering the Nikon D5000 for my starter camera. What do you think abouut that? With also a 55-200mm Zoom lens.
@xtobal28 i have the d5000, its a great for beginners for the price and the quality, its has alot of preset modes, so u dont have to figit with apetures/iso/and f/stops, itll teach u eventually how to do ur own manual mode. it came with the 18-55, which i liked, its good for scenery and portraits, not bad at close up. then i got the 55-200 vr-great price for a telephoto lens. but then i got the 35mm 1.8 prime lens awsome lens for beginners for 200$ i suggest atleast the 35mm awsome lens
I know you live in america, but if you ever get a chance you should go to scotland some of the national parks there are amazing to see dears and stags =)
Great video, I love your photos in link.I saw wonderful pict of lightning storm. Can you please tell me how did you take a pict of lightning storm, what settings ? Thanks. Please go to my profile and watch my video.. Thanks
Good videos, bud, just calm down a bit. You seem either extremely nervous, you have to go pee and want to get done with this quickly - haha. Keep it up!
i checked out your website and found a lot of nice shots. There's just one (tiny little) thing, that i didn't like that much, and that was the high level of saturation.
But anyway. Nice Work man! And thank you for sharing this with us!
Am I wrong in sensing a slight bit of resenment towards the pros who have the time, the money, the detinations AND are good with cameras? lol thanks for the vid! :D
@MrHavoc333 no, it is just the truth. It is the same with me as well, i travel alot more than many of my fellow classmate photographers so I get more pics than they do. Their is no doubt that the pros are extremely skilled and many would not be able to get amazing pics like they do. .
You talk more about the place/landscape rather than the camera settings. You should have discussed what setting is good for the particular time of the day to get the most out of the camera. Like set it to cloudy, vivid +2 or +3, glare filtering stuff etc. and create a beautiful picture that comes out straight from your camera. You got 2 out of 5 rating for this one, but I gave you 4/5 for the other camera tutorials.
@vividself This video was just made as an overview. I havent gotten around to making a more detailed review on camera settings yet. And in my opinion finding the wildlife is the most important part to wildlife photography. the settings are no good if you cant find the wildlife. Either way this is an intro vid.
hey i love your website design i also have a smugmug but i think you need to add the metadata. really nice pic though what editing program do you use?
I love your pictures... I have a D5000 Just got it yesterday.. I have a question... In which mode do you take your pictures... Manual, Auto..? and how do you do to have sooo vivid colors? I really like that! Congrats on your work! hope you can answer
Mostly manual mode, I us jpeg with the picture control settings set to vivid. It brings out the contrast and color of a scene unlike raw which you need to post process. It gets me the color that photographers using velvia 50 film get.
I own a superzoom, but despite my lack of gear, will this work for me? Because I don't know if taking pictures of wildlife with my point and shoot won't work for me. I own a powershot SX20 IS
Yeah! Im sure you can change lenses faster than i can take photos on my bridge camera................not! I would like to see you attempt to travel around as fast i have hiking in mountains and jungle carrying all your lenses and camping equipment. And my bridge camera does have high speed shooting mode which suits me fine
hi, my mom gave me the sony alpha 200 Im starting to take photo for a local teen magazine. I really need some new cheap and good lenses for sport photography . Please help me get the correct lenses....
Great Video I loved what you had to say, but I couldn't help but laugh when you said wildlife refugee, its refuge with one e. Oh well I guess these things happen, keep up the great videos.
How were you able to get this close? Like with the bighorn sheep how did you know when to cut it off and not get closer?

Am I wrong in sensing a slight bit of resenment towards the pros who have the time, the money, the detinations AND are good with cameras? lol thanks for the vid! :D

@MrHavoc333 no, it is just the truth. It is the same with me as well, i travel alot more than many of my fellow classmate photographers so I get more pics than they do. Their is no doubt that the pros are extremely skilled and many would not be able to get amazing pics like they do. .

You talk more about the place/landscape rather than the camera settings. You should have discussed what setting is good for the particular time of the day to get the most out of the camera. Like set it to cloudy, vivid +2 or +3, glare filtering stuff etc. and create a beautiful picture that comes out straight from your camera. You got 2 out of 5 rating for this one, but I gave you 4/5 for the other camera tutorials.

@vividself This video was just made as an overview. I havent gotten around to making a more detailed review on camera settings yet. And in my opinion finding the wildlife is the most important part to wildlife photography. the settings are no good if you cant find the wildlife. Either way this is an intro vid.

I love your pictures... I have a D5000 Just got it yesterday.. I have a question... In which mode do you take your pictures... Manual, Auto..? and how do you do to have sooo vivid colors? I really like that! Congrats on your work! hope you can answer
LuckyNoMusicNoLife 1 year ago
Mostly manual mode, I us jpeg with the picture control settings set to vivid. It brings out the contrast and color of a scene unlike raw which you need to post process. It gets me the color that photographers using velvia 50 film get.

I just upgraded to a nikon d3 and use a 14-24mm and 70-200mm with 1.7x tele on the camera.
QQQQcon 1 year ago
I own a superzoom, but despite my lack of gear, will this work for me? Because I don't know if taking pictures of wildlife with my point and shoot won't work for me. I own a powershot SX20 IS
joetheazl 1 year ago
yes that will work. Capturing fast animals will be near impossible though because compacts are very slow compared to dslrs.

@QQQQcon,
DSLR is ONLY faster if you dont need to change lenses.
sonofthedestroyer 1 year ago
I disagree. I would rather change a lens and still have a speedy camera than use a camera I can only take 1 or two pics every few seconds with.
biscuitbub123 1 year ago
@biscuitbub123,
Yeah! Im sure you can change lenses faster than i can take photos on my bridge camera................not! I would like to see you attempt to travel around as fast i have hiking in mountains and jungle carrying all your lenses and camping equipment. And my bridge camera does have high speed shooting mode which suits me fine
sonofthedestroyer 1 year ago
just my opinion. pros use these cameras for a reason.

im olympus at the mo but im upgrading to something like the nikon d300 or te canon eos 5d..... what do u suggest?
willjessel 1 year ago
d300 for speed, 5d for still life and landscape. The 5d is a pain to use though.
QQQQcon 1 year ago
i Would say D300 to, not only for speed but its much better at high ISO. Among many things.

Following your advice on your videos has helped me make quite a few good decisions.
Today for example I went out and bought a 70 - 200m mm f2.8 nikon lens.
I already own a 24- 70 f2.8 lens as well.
So from what I figure all I need to do is get the 12-24 and I should have a good selection for landscape, portrait or wildlife ...generally.
Keep up the good work, you are a great inspiration for a heck of a lot of photographers.
You are a great teacher.

Good video, but if you think you are short on of wildlife in the US you really have an amazing amount of it compared to the U.K.
Over here we have Dogs cats sheep cows pigs goats....he! he! only joking ! but we dont get any of the big wild animals you have .
