3 DAYS SOLO BUSHCRAFT | nature photography, tarp shelter, making fire, chicken on stick, Denmark

My motivation and creativity comes from many things such as listening to music, watching movies and seeing other photographers work but the one thing that gives me the most is spending time in nature. Just being out there with out without camera, listening to the wind playing with the leaves and the small birds, walking in the woods sensing the trees and all the live around me without a specific purpose - that is my meditation to stay creative and the best way for me to stay reconnected with nature.
I am in an old forest a few hours from my home, on a 3 days nature photography and bushcraft trip. Despite bringing all my camera gear and vlogging equipment I feel so relaxed. Just making a small tarp shelter, some food on the camp fire and doing a little landscape photography. That is what this trip is all about for me - nature relaxation and just spending some nice days out there, enjoying autumn in Denmark.

    37 MINUTES OF NOT EVEN a single word , and we didnt need it because his videos are audibly so rich with minute detailed sound design , be it bird chirps , fire flames sounds , rumbling of the trees ,,,, he did justice to his title "solo bushcraft" because when you are solo you have no one to talk to and he wanted to make us feel the same that we are on our own adventure all by ourselves thanks morten brother for this peaceful yet so rich treat

    Another gift from Morten Hilmer, the Master Storyteller. Gentle steps through the land that provide food, a place to rest, a place to find peace of mind and peace of heart, and suddenly there was a little bird dancing around as if to say 'thank you Morten for visiting my world' and then the lesson: be grateful for the land that gave you everything and leave it just as you found it in the first place. Amazing story, yet without saying a word!!! I am blessed truly blessed as I feel there is still hope for this beautiful world as long as people like Morten lives, and that his message becomes infectious around the world. Thank you Morten once again. Amazing video presentation with beautiful drone work too. Stay safe in your travels - the world needs you.

Although my trip was not as rustic as this I was still camping out of a 7x14 cargo trailer converted to a camper. 90% of my trip was in either national parks, state parks or boondocking. This video so makes me want to be back on the road. I just started watching your videos and am hooked. I also like to photograph things...
