A lot of survival channels and teachers don't emphasize enough that people go into the outdoors for a REASON, and not jsut to experience "survival." We go out there to DO something, whether it's hiking, fishing, boating . . . or photography. Thank you for reminding us of this.
After almost 60 years and thousands and thousands of hours in a blind, tree stand or sneaking through the woods, I have learned that the minute you enter their world your presence is known. The birds sound the alert, the squirrels will follow you along and soon all the animals in that area know there is an intruder.
Once you are settled, little birds will land right next to you and squirrels will drop acorns on your head to try to make you move. If you do the alert starts all over and every animal is looking to see what the problem is. The animals of the forest may not speak the same language but entering their world is like slipping into a pool. There will be ripples.
Great video on the ABCs of wildlife photography. You always find a way to entertain us. Looking good. Keep it up.
Wild Woman Vanessa👍👍 So many subjects to cover in a comment, it would be too much. So, I'll just say WOW a fantastic video and done well. Looks like you really do take your photography seriously and beyond the normal. You have an impressive collection of gear, any photographer would be envious. You look as beautiful as ever and your energy is returning to its exuberant self, so happy to see you smiling again. I'm surprised the wildlife doesn't just come up to you and say.."take my picture Vanessa" account your love for nature. Great video always done well, thanks for your hard work. See you next time. Enjoy!
Great video! Very informative and educational. You explain everything really well. Great work Vanessa! Your looking awesome! 🌹❤️
That was a very interesting video. A little bit of a departure from your normal videos. You always have the best equipment and take the time to explain each item. Loved the entire camouflage on everything. You look so much better these days. Then again you look good always I must admit! You're obviously recouping well and looking good as ever. Just can't get enough of your German accent. It's so adorable. Appreciate how you put the hard work in for each video. Good health going forward. God Bless. 🥰🤗❤🙏
I'm so happy to see you up and around and back to your perky self. Glory to God!
Some very impressive equipment, and the trap camera footage was great to see. Thanks again Vanessa and take care 👍 🙂 ❤
i didnt think anyone could pull off looking cute in a ghillie suit lol !
Perfect camouflage, great material and equipment, lots of experience and patience, you are always very professional in all your very beautiful videos and photos. Hi good evening👍
Thank you Leonardo!
Nice to see this in Bavaria. My great grandfather Steffes came to the U.S. as a lad from Bavaria in the 1850's. Enjoy seeing where he lived as a young boy.
An impressive array of equipment. A great video - you covered many areas of natural wildlife photography. Thanks Vanessa.
Nice to see you out in the nature again, even if its doing photography. You're looking much healthier now and I hope you're well on your way to doing what you love the most: bushcrafting.
Still nice to see our old Vanessa back on the ball. That is a serious amount of kit you have, meaning loads of hours watching and waiting. enjoyed your talk through. Arthur (UK)
Well done Vanessa. Great outfit and patience. It shouldn't be too strenuous once you've settled.
Great to see you out and about! Doing something that you love to do. I wish you the best, and, a full recovery.❤💐
Love the variety of equipment Vanessa including the camouflage outfit. Stay safe, my best =) Jesse ✌️
Great information for photographers wanting to explore the beauty of our nature.
An amazing amount of information alot of which I did not know and will be able to use when in nature.This is a great spin -off to your earlier videos .Hope to to see many more and I am glad to see you in good health again. Best wiches , Rick
Thanks Vanessa for the hard work you do to bring us nice videos stay healthy stay safe 🦊🏆🌺👍
Thank you Logan!
Nice to see you again Vanessa! interesting video. I hope you succeed in both film and photography, wild animals so rarely pose for us humans. Have a good start into the new week! 💗 😀❤🦊
Thank you Dennis! Wish you also a great week!
Its good to see you being you, the level of skill from military understanding
its a global skill of photography.
Very interesting, educational and well presented. I am as always impressed
Wow Vanessa! I really enjoyed your video. It’s neat to see all the equipment and preparation that is needed to get good photos and videos of the wild animals. Love the music that was playing when you showed the animals videos. Thank You for your hard work and sharing!
Ich habe es genossen!🙂
Very interesting, seeing all of your equipment and preparations. Fun video, for sure!
Like 756. Awsome equipment and awsome tips Vanessa 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great show 🌹👍👍
The camouflage gear and camera equipment you have are high quality.
Perfect as Usual.. Your channel is always great to watch.
🇬🇧
Very interesting. Thanks.
I enjoyed this video, as an amateur photographer its cool to see some of the nice equipment and technique's you use. Looking forward to the next video.
Your forests look so nice over there, mine are full of thorn bushes.
Great video , again.. Great explanation about Your cameras and equipment.. ( I know , You both have the great responsibility of Your children and family) ..This is what the "UA-camr side" of Vanessa is all about.. can`t wait for the next one.. : )
Cotton fabric in a solid khaki (tan) color works quite well. It uses the shadows cast by surrounding vegetation onto your clothing which creates a camouflage effect. It is also cooler in hot weather as it reflects light and the cotton breathes. I have found that clothing made with synthetics can actually have a glossy appearance and reflect sunlight like a mirror surface. If you want to add camo colors to your cotton khaki fabric, you can take a black, fat tipped, permanent magic marker and draw twigs and branches on your shirt and pants. You can draw green leaves on the twigs. To make a home made gillie suit, you can cut green leaf shapes out of green fabric and glue the leaf shapes with fabric glue to the cotton khaki. I use Browning Trail Cameras. They have very clear day and night time video and they also record sound.
Very good Vanessa! I think you are right using your camo patterns. I enjoyed this video
Super Vanessa you are a green angel 🌲🌲👍🇵🇱
Good and great work champ,
You look really awesome today!
So nice to see in this army dress
Carry on
And live in what you want, sure we were wit u allways
Happy Birthday, Vanessa!
Great going. You are so much better equipped than I ever was when I ventured into the woods.
Love your camouflage. Looks good on you.
It was very interesting thank you for sharing and love your videos and have a Great Day
It's amazing nice to see you again ❤💖💕
Very interesting Vanessa great camouflage.
This is a good topic for content. You were seeking from subscribers what content they want to see and this is a good subject and from bushcraft view point. Hunting with camera is legal and can be as much fun as hunting with guns.
Excellent video - I have been doing nature photography for 50 years and you covered a lot of topics in a very through manner - I look forward to your next video.
Thank you Tom!
Thank you Vanessa. It was interesting video.
Gilly suit is good way to go
I like this , national geographic is going to hire you.
Thank you for another good video
Your camo is perfect , my eyes are sharp and I couldn't see you at all .
love the Camouflage ❤
GREAT video as usual
Vanessa, you look great even in camouflage. This video is very well done. One of my favorites. You're going to need a bigger bike wagon. 😺 and maybe a bigger car soon.😲 You might run into some of the 2,000 American soldiers sent to Germany. If you approach any, tell them U.S. said to take good care of you or they'll be in trouble when they get home.🤨 Much love from Texas. 💜
This is awesome stuff.
Being a professional photographer back in the 80's, we had to work with film cameras and never knew what the results were going to be until the film was developed. You mentioned the white lenses... yes even back in the 80's the ultra-expensive or high-quality camera lenses were always white. Today, a person can get great photos with a DSLR or even an iPhone for that matter. We had to use 120/220 roll film cameras like Hasselblad, Mamiya, Pentax, Rollei... 35mm cameras didn't provide high enough quality for prints up to 8x10 as the negative was too small. Today, the bigger the megapixels, the higher quality of the image will be... the camera can be quite small and produce big results.
@Scadster's World There’s a few out there that have ultra high megapixels… not to my surprise Hasselblad has a 100 mp rig $27,000 and Fujifilm has a 102 mp for $10k. I owned a Pentax 645 when I was in the photo business and they offer it today as a digital camera… Pentax 645Z at 51.4 mp. That’s a very tempting camera indeed! Sony A7R IV 61 mp at $3,500 seems to be a value at that price and has Sony/Carl Zeiss lenses…. You couldn’t go wrong with that combo!
Your skills with wildlife photography will serve you well when SHTF.
Nice
Great content. Thanks for the tips. Glad you are doing better.
That is some real good camo.vary nice gear.be safe darling. 👍
very informative-excellent
brilliant video , very interesting . thank you ..
Good work Great job as always
Love your channel
Pink Camo is the best 😚🐾❣️🦉
I am fascinated. You are a true professional. Also, your knowledge is really great. You are truly a phenomenal person.
"Vanessa Blank-Wild Woman-Special Forces Bushcraft" :-)
Very informative Vanessa
The sweet and beautiful Vanessa. Hope you're well. ❤😊
I love
Wonderful Vanessa :-))) xx
Excellent information. Reminders that the amo changes depending on the time of year and where you are located are important and so is the info on the various cameras as well as how to care for them. I hope a lot of people will use the information you provided to take more wildlife photos! Be well, we all are thrilled that you're back but hopefully won't relapse. Please use your own good judgement!
amazing!!
Nice 👍 gear
Thank you great video I learned a lot.
Savethefox.... nice storie!
Really enjoyed your video Vanessa. Very nice equipment you have can't wait to see more. 😉👍👍
💖💖💖
Awesome!
Very impressive setup you have there, Vanessa. However, the most impressive part of all was the beautiful environment. Very picturesque. That is the type of place that I would love to disappear into for several days.
Glad to see that you don't look like a tree !
😁
good job
I learned from the airsoft ghilli suit players, to wrap the cotton camoflage mesh and velcro it together around my Nikon 300 F2.8 lens and D800E camera body. I then use brown micro zip ties to tie artificial 3D leaves onto the mesh creating a 3 D leaf bush effect around the lens. I also add these leaves to my 3D leaf ghilli suit to make a fuller leaf pattern around ones head to make you look less like a human silhouette. You can dye or paint the suit, to match the season you will be trying to camoflage in, like brown and green for summer, and tans, khaki, and more grey for winter and fall, as the plants begin to change colours for winter. You can add yellow, orange and red leaves, with spattered brown and green on them for fall. Burn the edges of the cloth leaves to make them look in different states of decay. Ikea or Micheal's here in Canda, sell grass and various leaves that can be attached with the micro zip ties. Other than that, thank you for sharing your knowledge, on how you approach your photography. Check out British, kickingmustang, Novritsh, ripperkon, and Akostaten UA-camrs, on how they set up their ghilli leaf suits.
Very interesting, thank you Vanessa 😊
Ottima attrezzatura Vanessa spero di vedere presto altri video sul tema
You should create an ASMR wildlife photography youtube channel.
Vanessa, not being into photography, I would probably use a telescope attachment (I think the magnification is x 20) to my mobile phone and take simple, probably not very high quality, photos and videos. The advantage is that my equipment costs are small, my insurance costs small, and I travel light. Also , with so much expensive photography apparatus around, you could attract the wrong company. I noticed that Aika was nowhere to be seen. I would always take Aika with me to guard you and your equipment. I haven't even got a GoPro! I think what is really clever is when photographers take pictures of animals giving birth and pictures of the development of the babies. Best of all, I liked the photos of yourself when you were relaxing or in poetic or pensive mood. They were really something! If you made a video on how to plait your hair, using yourself as a model, we would all be experts in tying knots with rope in the forest. What do you think Vanessa? It's always pleasing to hear from you. With all our love xxx.
👍👍
Wow Vanessa thats some serious gear you have there. I'm wondering that your blank photos may have been triggered by bird or bat? 😁🤔 Seriously looking "badass" in your last couple of videos. Cool! 😂👍 I have deer which regularly visit where i live and for the first time ever i see a totally white coloured variety i didn't know existed. 😁👌
Good video Vanessa. I'm a Sony camera(4) guy too :) I've been a hunter for over 60 years. Bowhunter for the last 30+ years. And done some wildlife photography incidental to my landscape photography in Glacier National Park USA.
I would advise you to consult with your hunter friends, especially bowhunters, about the importance for "scent control". The deer and boars(and most mammals) in your area have an extremely keen sense of smell. You should have multiple locations around a trail for blind locations you intend to enter before dawn. You want to always be DOWN wind of the trail or area you are watching. Having the rising sun behind you is always desirable if possible.
Regarding camo. My advice is to use cotton or wool for clothing. The sound of both fabrics rubbing on something are far less alarming than the harsh sound synthetic fabrics make rubbing on virtually anything. The camo fabrics should not reflect UV light.
Many animals are able to see UV light reflected. If your clothes reflect light in the UV or near UV spectrum, animals will pick up your movement in what you think is "the dark". Wash all clothes for your wildlife photography in scent free and UV "brightener free" detergent.
You should come to the states and do bushcraft and photography!
And last...Some "park animals" on the Grinnell Glacier trail in Glacier Park . 😎ua-cam.com/video/AoD9Vl-QMT4/v-deo.html
@Gary Wilkinson I can't think of anyone I would more love to share secrets with than ---😊💋Vanessa Blank !!!!!!! 👍👍😉😉😎😎👏👏👏💖💖🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for your good tipps Pete! I will try it out!
I've been to Glacier-Waterton. Actually I rode a bicycle there from Vancouver and then did the Going to the Sun road. I will look into the scent side I haven't thought of. (I fish but don't hunt.) I have a UV flashlight so I can check for UV reflectivity. So thanks.
🌲🦌📷👍
❤️.
👌👍
I love my olympus OM 1 SLR
Where does one go to toilet inside a blind ? 🤔
Amazing talent. Thank you for sharing and teaching. Love to you sister Vanessa.🌹
Joy, Nobody ever wants to talk about this subject--so I will. 😉
I always carry a 1 liter collapsible Nalgene WIDE mouth bottle while backpacking, sitting in a treestand, etc.
Yes, it is a bit more awkward for ladies but I know quite a few women who adapted to the wide mouth bottle.
I'm not gonna leave my tent at 3AM to pee, especially if it's bad weather! 👍👍😎
Pete, you are the best 😅😘
@@Pete_FamilyLapkinLifeFan And your pee bottle will keep you warm. Tighten the lid!
@@barrybogart5436 LOLOL! You bet! That's one reason I like those Nalgene wide mouth bottles--the lid has a good gasket that can be screwed down tight! 👍👍😉
@@Pete_FamilyLapkinLifeFan Thank you...I've got no problem with bottles.
I was wondering why no one gives ideas about what to do. Thanks
You are so talented and knowledgeable let alone charming and beautiful. Wish I was with you.
Very informative and helpful Vanessa - thank you!!! I'm look at getting the Sony 200-600. Have you filmed a review of that lens? Thanks.
If you can explain this complicated subject in English you can do any podcast in English! Great job!
Hey Gary! LOL! While I'm giving away hunting secrets, here is another one that I'm certain Vanessa can try. I will be using this method when I move back to Florida in a few weeks. "Tree stand photography".
Vanessa, you have forests that have many good trees that will work well with what is called a "climbing treestand". Climbing treestands work well on trees which have no, or very few limbs. Sitting quietly in a tree only 3-4 meters off the forest floor will put you out of the "direct line of sight" of many animals "SOMEtimes" :) I cannot tell you how much fun I have had simply watching "animals be animals" while completely unobserved in a treestand. Higher in the tree(I sometimes went as high as 25 feet-8 meters), higher is better for concealment, but...The downside of photography from a treestand is that the "downward angle" is not great as you go higher. That said, you might get some good shots of bird life like owls. I had a Great Horned Owl fly by me at less than 2 meters while bowhunting in a treestand. Do some scouting this summer for places where deer "rut" in the autumn(consult hunter friends) Look for places to use a treestand to video stags fighting in the autumn. I used to take a book to read and a wide mouth collapsible bottle to pee in while treestand hunting. Now I take a kindle to read...less movement turning pages.
Vanessa I think you would like adding treestand photography to your skills. It's very easy to learn how to climb a tree with a climbing stand. TONS of UA-cam videos on climbing stands.
Camouflage Vanessa, nice! 😘😘😘 I like your camera setup. I’m still learning about using a camera to take photos/videos of nature. Peace to you, Vanessa.
Great video, nice work, I still have a film Camara, but that's not good for photos anymore with DSLRs around.
Have a great day
Sure it is! Good film is like 50MP and has more contrast range. Slows you down but that's a good thing. Only costs about 25 cents a shot if you scan yourself. I use the same Minolta lenses on my film and Sony bodies. Kodak is making Ektachrome again.
Very comfortable in your camouflage clothes
Lots of birds chirping have you thought about shooting them? 👋
Boa tarde Vanessa Deus abençoe vc e sua família 🤝👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
