I get your newsletters but they are not in English! Which is totally fine ... I just can't read them! :-) Thanks again for a lovely video. My wife is from Scotland and we are planning a photography vacation next summer. She is going to show me all the great spots. We are going to drive up through the Highlands and then ride over to Orkney and the hopefully to Shetland. I think they have puffins on Shetland. I hope to see those beautiful birds and a deer or two! Thanks again Morten for the inspiration!

You do know ..Morten lied to🤣 you about the *coffee*

Fascinating video with Maid Marion naked in the waterfall and a wet camera. That little white lie about ’the coffee’ - we heard it all. Morten, you are the best story teller ever. And the shots of the deer are just beautiful. So we have Maid Marion meets Bambi. Awesome. 😄👌

Oh boy, I have such a crush on Morten. Cant get enough of his passion and energy for what he loves to do.

😂😂😂😂😂 your not a coffee drinker????....mate, your addicted!

So great to hear. Thanks a lot. 👍

I’m so surprised that you are wearing a bright red jacket in this one. I really love your videos. Thank you.

I don't think I have ever seen anyone who was so joyous about getting soaking wet! I always want a perfectly clear shot. Seeing your photos of the dear obscured behind the grass I can see that it is the mood of the image that is important not necessarily the focus or a clear view of the subject. Thanks!

Glad you had a great time. Have to say I am looking forward to winter now as that for me is when the landscape in Scotland really shines.

You and Adam are two of my very favorite photographers. You both do an excellent job of telling a story as well as showing how to capture an image.

I've been just binge-watching your videos! You're videos make me want to make more time to go outside and truly go into nature. I absolutely love watching these!

Morton your passion for wild life and being out in nature sure is an inspiration. I thank you for bringing us all along with you on your adventures. Keep up all your great work!!!

Scotland is so beautiful, beautiful pictures

Hey friends, it is nice to see two of my favorite wildlife photographers toghether at work.

The Scottish nature was perhaps the first nature in Europe that I truly truly fell in love with. Thanks for these, loving them and yearning to get back. Strongly considering my first winter trip to Scotland as well because of your videos.

You are such a lucky guy to see and been such beautifull places. just amzing! wonderful!

This should be used as a definition of "why weather sealing matters".

I feel your video is more beautiful when you are alone. Free and wild. My thought! Indeed a great video

Brilliant Morten not much more to say to this one, moving , funny and fantastic photos I absolutely love your style you really do show the feeling of the moment.

The way you say awesome is awesome

Great stuff as always Morten! Thank you for sharing your adventure and knowledge! I like the photos with rain and snow in them better myself as well for the mood they convey. Cheers!

The super intense face at the very beginning is a great subtle humor cut mate. Overall stunning and beautiful landscapes and footage. The rain kinda makes it.

Very interesting to watch yours and Adam's blogs of the same "subject". And I agree, one of the most special things you can experience is to be accepted by wildlife, when they know that you are there but don't consider you to be a threat is the best feeling ever IMO.

Thanks for the like. I've been binge watching you videos since I found them a few days ago. Great stuff, although I don't know how you handle the cold, I photograph in Australia and hardly even see a frost :) PS. Sorry if you got notified several times, I've had all sorts of trouble getting YT to log me in with the correct account.

fantastic places!

Great video Morten! And fun to get Adam's perspective through his videos as well :)

+1 for weather sealing +2 for Morten for making these amazing calming videos

The deer in Scotland are amazing, I once saw a massive herd walk right through the middle of a village totally ignorant of everything around them. I also have a shot of the famous leucitic fallow deer of Loch Lowes in a field watching me with it surround by 5 of the usual colour deers. When Adam want to learn something he comes across as a sponge who wants to soak everything in. I think he enjoys shooting some wildlife as he has done videos of puffins and short birds in the Scottish Islands. I doubt it will ever replace his landscapes though, personally I get equally pleasure from both. Funniest thing Ive heard in any video but be Morten saying "I’m not a coffee lover…" I think you got some great landscape shots, especially all things consider such as the wrong kit. A non waterproof lens is no good for any outdoor photography, one thing I like about my Sigma is its build quality. I great video as always Morten, very well done indeed.

This is awesome. These collaboration videos are just amazing. Absolutely stunning photos of those deer.

Beautiful!

Another fantastic video Morten. I live about 2 hours from that location, it's one of my favourite places to go hillwalking. The deer are so tame because tourists constantly feed them. There was a recent campaign to try and get people to stop feeding them sweets and chocolate etc. There was one particular stagg at a certain popular car park which would approach people and nudge them with his antlers for food. I think the forestry commission actually had shoot it. I know that you're in no way like that and have a huge respect for the wildlife, just explaining why they're so tame.

Hey Fergus and thank you so much. It would have been great to say hi to you up there. Hopefully I'm going again when the snow is coming. Oh that makes totally sense when people are feeding the deer. A shame though. Thanks a lot for sharing this information 👍

Beautiful, love your video. awesome !

Hello Morten, hope you and your family have had a wonderfull Christmas eve. I got the answer of this question by an old hunter and farmer from the hills a few years ago. These deers can of course see or recognize the difference between a backpacker or a huntsman, a rifle or a walking stick, walking around or sneak and stalk. He drives in the dark with his tractor, lights on, close 20m of 10 and more deers ceeping eatin and grazing and do not escape. Stay lucky and healthy in 2022. Alex from the German Eifel

Thank you for these videos! I really appreciate the effort you go through to share these moments with us. Cheers from Austria

Amazing thank you for sharing!

Really enjoyed Morten thank you. October is the time for the Rut here In Scotland most visitors have left and the glens become quiet again apart from the Stags bellowing across the glens but thats the norm and one could never get annoyed or tired of it, thats nature.

Morten Hilmer Hi Morten around mid October the Stags start to descend from the tops as the weather gets colder. One of my favourite places is a Glen known as ‘Kinloch Hourn’ the Glen is a no thorough road and not for people who like to rely on help if getting into difficulties. There are warning signs at the start telling people to be careful. This tends to put most tourists off which leaves the Glen in a nice natural environment. It’s a 22 mile drive to the sea loch at the end all single track, surround by mountains on each side. Wildlife, Stags, wild goats, eagles, buzzards and with the occasional seals/ dolphins at the end if lucky. It’s a very wild place and winter is the best time of year. I would recommend putting it on your todo list it is superb if you like wild places as I know you do. Iam fortunate to live only 10 minuets drive from the start of the Glen, and never tire of venturing down.

To new friendships! Well done guys.

As always a very passionate vlog - thanks for the great inspiration and motivation you illustrate

Excellent vlog. I watched your time with Nigel Danson and then First Man Photography, all 3 of you are very inspiring. Thank you 👍🏻

Fantastic and beautiful video as ALWAYS!!!

Morten, I love your wildlife videos, you come over as ‘so passionate’ and you also come up with some absolutely lovely images. Patrick Rigley, Cornwall.

Living the dream - enjoyed your trip

Damn Morten, you make me want to drop everything and rush back out to the mountains tomorrow. Unfortunately I have to work a couple of more days before hitting the Tetons for the weekend. Love your enthusiasm, never let it go.

You’ve inspired a passion for wildlife photography in me and videos like this just make me itch to go get more photos!

Love your video !

Very enjoyable vlog! Stunning images as well 🤠👌👊

I am having a date night with wildlife photograpy on you tube and you, Morten! Such a beautiful experience you’ve lived! So glad we have many videos to enjoy, thank you so much for it!

Hi Morten, you are such a funny guy. Allways a pleasure to see you shooting. No KZread videos has more "uuhss" and "aahs" of sheer pleasure like yours :-). Keep doing it and show your true passion for nature and photography. Great man. Love it

I am fairly new to your KZread Channel... but just wanted to say its one of the best !!! I love your comintary and approach to photograph. and your images are of the Best! Thank you for taking the time to do the videos, ..... Thank k you so much.

Finaly time to watch your video Morten, really nice..... but I want to see more of the beautiful animals you make photos of. Take care my friend:)

Morten: If I am lucky the rain pours down with heavy drop.... 2min later with heavy rain sound..... Ooooh this is very good! ahah Great! I love your adventures! Really!

In my home, Scotland. Deer like Red jackets. You know who they think you are? Wonderful creative shots, but Tameron's definitly need jackets on in the rain.

You're a top bloke and I love your style and enthusiasm. I've spent many a wild adventure in those Scottish mountains and absolutely love being up there. I need to get some proper camera kit one day 🙂👍

Excellent video, testing conditions with outstanding images, nice one Morten👍

hey Morten! another great video. very inspiring and motivating. I don't know about anyone else but i would love to see some bush craft and wild camping mixed in with some wildlife photography. No one i know on KZread does anything like that and i think it would be really great!

i love the story telling in your photography. simply love it :)

Great follow up to the first one. I look forward to the next adventure. Keep up the good work.

Morton you look lost when trying to Photography a landscape! I think this is great it just goes to show how Specialized photography is. You can’t be a jack of all trades. Everyone has a specialism that they have worked hard on for years. We may dabble in other genres but we all have a comfort zone and you looked out of yours which was good to see

the way you use the music adds more power to the powerful nature. Just Awesome.

Wow! You made some great images there! Normally deers are very shy animals, it was interesting to see them so accepting.

Great video, just goes to show , a little rain does not stop you getting great shots . There are a few good places in England to photograph deer you should try ☺

Hi Morten, I am actually very surprised that this little tripod actually supported your camera and that lens, but you did mention that you were holding it. A fairly good option when not having a tripod is a platypod. It’s a metal base with spikes where you can attach a ball head and can support very heavy loads. It is not a tripod but if you can find a place to put it, then it can give you the stability of a tripod.

It is truly inspiring how you can shoot while filming, you got one sub and you truly deserve it.

Morten Hilmer your welcome!!

Yeah that's crazy how close you could get to the deer. Where I live, if a deer sees you, no matter how far away, if it just SEES you, it's GONE, lol. Same with most wildlife.

Hi Morten. Great footage and nice little adventure. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but this land is offering an amazing and picturesque landscapes which you can just dream about. Even in some rainy conditions. I noticed that all those portraits of deer you photographed are so close, that it even doesn't matter you would took it in Scotland or France. I mean they are great, but i think it's much appreciated also the background, the true environment the animals are living thriving. Seems like it's important only the animal. Yes the closeups are crucial, but today 99 % of wild life photographers are focused just on them. Even the lens you are using is more then perfect. And it's more then perfect for landscapes too. I wish you all the best Morten, you are an amazing and inspiring person. Best regards ;)

You need to come to Killarney co Kerry Ireland for the big stags especially in Oct for the rut
