On This Island Nature Is Left Alone
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- In this episode I am going to one of my favourite locations for wildlife photography.
Vorsø is a protected Island in Denmark, and for almost 100 years this little paradise has not been regulated by humans in any way.
I have been photographing badgers on this island for several years now, and even though I have got many great photos on this locations, I always leave the island with new photos in mind and situations I did not manage to capture.
February is not a good month to photograph badgers since they are only active when it is dark, but that is not the purpose of this trip.
I am here to gather information and to prepare for this spring's photography and hopefully to learn a bit more about the badgers at this time of the year.
Enjoy watching.
See you out there...

Morten, I recently went back to watch your first video with the surprise fox and it's great to see the enthusiastic approach to sharing your love of nature is still there 5 years later. Please never change this, it's what keeps us all so excited to get a new Morten notification.
You do such a great job. I absolutely love your videos! When I watch your video, I feel like I'm walking in the forest myself! Thank you
Der Krieger auch da
Immer wieder interessant zu sehen wen es hier auf Morten‘s Kanal verschlägt….🤗

Thank you for sharing your next episode Molten. And seriously first I like and comment on your video then I watched. it's my pleasure to see you once again.
From Pakistan 🇵🇰🤍🇳🇴
Time spent with you is such a pleasure money can't buy. Thanks for continuing to make the effort to share your adventures. It means so much to those who can't be there for whatever reason.
West Denmark looks so beautiful even in Winter.
Thank you for your update. I love watching your adventures... looking forward to seeing what you capture behind the lens in the next 3 weeks.
Thank you for sharing your adventures Morten. Your videos are always a pure moment of enjoyment and relaxation.
Thank you so much Carlo
When you mention a trip to Svalbard I can only think of fantastic photage and new Nikon gear - hopefully Z8 🤩
Excellent! Perfect video to watch before sleep.
Morten, another amazing video that I watched! The best wildlife chanel! O melhor!
Morten! Your videos reenergize my passion for wildlife videography every time I watch them!! Thank you!!
Plainly and simply - just can’t get enough of your videos. To be invited into your experiences is an honor. Thanks Morten.
Normally I have little patience and often zap through quickly. But the calmness that Morten exudes, how he enjoys and shares that with us. In one word, great and I keep watching it.
I love watching your video's, I find them very calming in what can be quite a hectic world these days! Thank you.
I take my hat off to you Morten for your amazingly well done youtube channel. I admire your drive, enthusiasm, joy and willingness to share your adventures and knowledge when taking photos and videos. Best regards from Malmö.
I love your badger studies, in fact I own a couple of your badger prints from this little island, but I am also pleased to see you are still doing your macro photography. The snowdrop is my favourite flower, it appears to tell nature it can wake up now and start to get ready for Spring. Another wonderful film, Morten, thank you. 🥰
Also, I vote to name your new photo blind 'the Elton John' because it was still standing 😜
🤣
As always a cracking vlog Morton I take it the photo blind was a Mr Jan Gear, enjoy your trip
I love your love for nature and the world so much!
It was at the 16 minute mark that I was drawn in to the film. It was like I was right there, connecting with nature. It's all about the long periods of quiet that have a calming effect, a technique that many a modern filmmaker have forgotten. I admire your persistence with photography even during the cold, barren winter months. It's winter here in New Zealand right now, and I have a day off tomorrow. I'll be waking up early tomorrow morning to venture out to take some photos too.
Tusen tack för denna härliga video, Morten. Det är alltid lika fint att få se din positiva attityd och strålande energi. Önskar dig en mycket lyckad, och trygg resa till Svalbard 😍
Watching after a longtime
Nothing has changed
At peace ✌🏻
Thank you Morten for sharing this precious moments with us
This is another reason to why Morten Hilmer is the best photographer in the world.WE LOVE YOU MORTREN
thank you for the interesting info about the different signs of predator attacks that show up on the prey's feathers.
another Beautifully photographed video.
So happy to see you on another great nature adventure Morten! Look forward to futures ones, so worth waiting for. Happy to see your farm being watched after by your dad, he is doing a great job! Enjoy seeing him, Simon and Bjorn on the Nature Cam 😊. Be safe
You have provided me with another first. First time, I've seen someone take a trip to an island by tractor, rather than boat!
Great video looking forward to watching the rest of your adventure
Enjoyed the video. Good to see the badgers are still thriving on the island. Hopefully things went well on Svalbard. Looking forward to your next video.
I am happy to see my blind surviving the stormtest
The blind is premium Jan👍
This is really nice! Watched it with coffee and every time Im looking your videos, Im more motivated to go out and be around with wildlife and nature. Thank you
I have been watching your vlogs about wildlife photography for 2 months, which inspired me so I tried wild bird and nature photography to support nature and wildlife, now my views on facebook page are increasing, Thank you sir @Morten Hilmer ❤
Morten, I've been following you for a long time and one of your things that fascinate me are stories and your vision of things until you translate them into photography, you are one of the many inspirations I have to be a photographer, thanks for being you.
the vibes you share are insane. Looking forward to watch your Svalbard experience!! Best !!
Thank you Tomi. So Nice to hear
Awesome video Morten! I hope you have a fantastic time on Svalbard, and I cannot wait to see what you get to photograph and experience on the trip. I hope you get to see a Polar Bear again! Take care.👍
Brilliant, as always
Your cat doesn't get much video time. Happy to see it. :)
Spectacular scenery. Peaceful environment. Snowdrop flowers popping. The video leads me to a state of tranquillity. Want to grab my own gear and just set off. Thanks for sharing Morten.
Man I really love your videos, it gives me a feeling of connection with nature in times when i cant go out. Keep it up❤
Enjoyed it very much as always. BUT no Bjørn?! We are his fan club and would like to see him for at least a couple of minutes LOL
I really enjoy your videos, so relaxing and educational. It's also nice how you can appreciate the smallest things so much, many people can learn from that, including myself. Thank you for all the energy you put into these beautiful vlogs!
Incredible beauty! Morten, you are incredibly inspiring to move forward in photography!!! Thank you very much and good shots!!!
So calming to see.
Det er dejligt at se steder i Danmark man normalt ikke selv vil kunne se. Tak for en fantastisk video.
The time and effort you put in the preparation is key for the success. I'm pretty sure you will be rewarded and I am looking forward for you to share it with us. Cheers from Canada.
Amazing !! Love your work ! Can't wait for the next episode!
I recently got hooked on your videos. I listen to your stories and above all I watch what you do to study if I can copy some things haha!! Greetings from the Canary Islands. You have a hobby colleague who admires you and watches you from afar 😉
I am happy to see u have Kelly kettle. I have it as well and love it. Love your videos
Thank you for taking us to the little island and showing us all the preparations for the spring. I hope you get to see lots of the badgers over there 😀And it wouldn't be one of your videos if there wasn't any coffee in sight ☕😆Looking forward to the next video!
Hi Morten, thank you for this beautiful new video, it's really fun to watch your videos, I'm looking forward to your adventures in Svalbard 🐾 😊
Hello Morten, You do have a great why with your words and images, I do thank you for sharing. Keep well, keep safe and enjoy your lift.
Great Video, good luck with your trip to Svalbard, keep well & stay safe. Waiting in anticipation for the footage 👍🇬🇧
I love your Videos and you inspired me to start Wildlifephotography 👍
Thank you for that Great Viedo
I always, always hit that “like” button before even start watching a video, because i know it will be awsome! Thank you Morten, you are just an amazing person and wonderful photographer, so inspiring! Thank you!
Fantastico tractor boa !wow!
Another great, relaxing, happy video. Can't wait to see what Svalbard has in store for you.
Good to see you back out in the field and sharing it with us. Things are looking good at Vorsø and I'm looking forward to the Spring. Sad to hear about the Fox issues on Svalbard though. Stay safe and have a great trip . 🙂
Excellent video as usual Morten! I’m having alot at ”my” sett as well, been seeing cubs out which indicates either an early batch or a late one.
Can’t wait to spring and see where your badger project is going!
Cheers 😊🙏
Super teaser Morten
Springs coming 😊
Can’t wait 👍
I can’t even begin to count the ways that I am envious!
Hello Morten, nice to see your new video, and happy see the badgers, also i follow some badgers and i will try to photograph them, i hope in next months.
I wish you good light and beautiful moments at Svalbard!😊
Love from India
Amazing, have a great trip Morten, looking forward to seeing the photographs!
Glad you're back in action, Morten, and looking forward to seeing how your trip goes. Take care!
Hi Morten
thanks for sharing your experiences. I look forward to continuing your adventures at Svalbart.
Very inspiring, I agree galaxies are mind blowing to photograph!
I've just recently taken my photography a little more seriously now I have been dabbling with a fuji film fine pix Camera as part of my outdoor equipment (bush crafter/mountain biker/trail camper/cook ) I have been taking photos leisurely for 10 years now with this small bridge camera and I have been complimented on various photos from actual photographers I have since upgraded my equipment and have decided that I want to take the next step in progression with my photography and when I came across your channel it made my mind up that your style and photography has inspired me greatly I absolute enjoy your videos and your skill and tips are absolute spot on thanks for your inspiration.
Morten, so good to 'see' you! Always admire your love for Nature, and spirit for a new adventure! Keep living life my friend!
I recently discovered your channel and really enjoy your videos. Your love of nature and photography shines through in every one of them. I learn so much and they are also so relaxing to watch. Thank you for sharing your great gifts!
Great video! There is nothing which let any wish open, except that more videos are needed … Thnx 👍😃
That photoblind has an great camo, I think it is SloCam. Great choice.
Awesome as always, nice seeing someone other than myself sit in the middle of nowhere for hours just hoping for the animals to come back. The amount of preparation to find the animals and capture them is something I don't think the general public quite understands :)
A proper multipurpose wagon that! :)
Been awhile. Thank you for the new sharing 👍🌺🇲🇾
Thanks - joy as always. Usual excitement, in our house, when you latest video lands!
So excited for this trip! Looking forward to your next videos. Stay safe.
Saving this for the TV. Morten on the big screen.
I didn’t know you had a cat, beautiful. Looking forward to the Svalbard video.
So sorry to hear about the foxes on Svalbard. I loved photographing them the last time I was there. Looking forward to your adventures there!
Catherine
Always left wanting more - till next time! ❤
Great video my friend, I can't wait to see the next one!!!! You are a one man Nat-Geo!!!👍👍👍
Another fine adventure coming up! Looking forward to having you share it with us, Morten. Hope it really goes well for you.
The work is amazing love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
I can not wait for part two of the video. I am thinking of doing wildlife photography for a living.
every single video, I don't skip, I watch from beginning to end
Hi Morten! Hope you're having fun diving with sea turtles. :) Currently watching a moose and a roe deer stag (? male with antlers) outside my window. Well, the moose got too close, so the roe deer ran away. So now the moose is nibbling on some left-over hay, that I threw out from my guinea pigs. Currently home at my mothers' "farm". We had -32 celsius last night. Still very much winter in Finnmark. Correction: There are two moose, I'm guessing mother and daughter. The baby moose is a bit small and skinny for this time of year, but hopefully it will make it through the winter. I saw them all yesterday as well. The roe deer is a regular visiter here in the winter.
What an amazing person you are, your dedication to wildlife your outdoor skills are simply brilliant,May i personaly thankyou and Simon,For all your effots,your dedication once again,and thankyou for another wonderfull video
Sir Morten thank for sharing btw i like that ladder 18:53
You are doing an amazing job!
That is the most original ferry I've ever seen :)
Thank you for your wonderful videos. Where do you buy your wonderful sweaters? They look like they keep you warm.
Mr. Hilmer. May I ask where you purchased your bush hat you wore in the first segment on the island? I've been looking for one just like that but with no luck. Thank you for all you do for your audience. I always look forward to your productions.
❤️😊
Thanks for another great video, Morten! I hope you got lucky with the badgers and managed some nice stills. I was thinking actually that you manage to create such high quality stories and content that it'd be great if one day you might consider making a video or two about how you make your videos - both from a story telling perspective and also a technical perspective with the cameras etc. It'd certainly benefit and be of help to people like me who are just starting out with a wildlife UA-cam channel. I know I'm biased because I wrote this - but I really do think a lot of people would be really interested to see those videos. Thanks for all the great stuff you have made for us to watch and I'm looking forward to the next one 🙂
Great video Morten. I too have been using trail cams in The New Forest, UK, to check for badger and fox activity. The results are promising - just need those warmer, longer days so I can get out there and try to get some pictures. Your videos are very inspiring :)
Oh what a treat, thank you Morten
Nice video Morten!
Hopefully the Foxes make it through the year for you.
It looks like you will have plenty of opportunity to capture
a lot of Badger video and photos.👍
Great vid as always. My intro camera is the Canon M6. Still using it for vid and pics. It's been great to learn on!
I am really waiting for the episode ♡ I love to watch your videos sir ❤️
Another great episode Morten!
Lots to looks forward to 😊❤
Beautiful
Your videos are always so awesome!
