  • Hi everyone and welcome to the next video on my channel so as we are all aware it is pretty quiet with the wildlife at the moment my last of course the keep on going to the highlight but out in the wild yes it is quiet as summer is drawing to an end and we turn into autumn.
    This week I went out to a new area called Pennington flash that has half a dozen wildlife photography hides and the large lake, the weather was clear blue skies and fine so I headed off very early to arrive at Pennington flash reserve at around 6:00 AM in the morning.
    I spent most of the morning photographing the great crested grebe as the steam rose off the lake and the sun edged its way up through the trees dappling the light across the water and onto the birds making for some wonderful soft photos video as dawn broke over the lake.

    No wonder you were so happy with this video; you have captured some stunning images here. To me, there's a perfect combination of closeups, shots with environment, slow motion, and lovely music. It was a beautiful experience and makes my heart sing. So, thank you Ashley, and I hope you enjoy the two weeks with your wife.

    Thanks for taking us on another great one of your photo journeys, Ash! Hate it when there is dog muck everywhere too, there is no need for it & it annoys the hell out of me. Sounds like the kingfishers were on a windup with you, hope you waved back at them though, lol. Some superb shots from Gigrin of those red kites, but the shot of the video for me, was that female grebe with the damselfly 100%! 👍👏👏

    Very beautiful. The music distracts from the beauty of the creatures. Thank you.

    Great shots. Pennington flash is very local to me being in Wigan. Yes you'll have to return Autumn/ Winter time as I've got some good shots of European Shoveller from the hides. Shame you had to fall foul of the dog XxxX.

      Lovely place to visit, shame about the dog walkers who never clear up after their pets.

    Hi Ashley. Pennington Flash is 0.25 of a mile from my house in Leigh, Lancashire….

    Those Grebe shots look breathtaking. You really have a knack for perfect exposure, when filming.
    My mission this year is to see some Red Kites. 😀
