Fabulous images!! 👍👍👍
Thank you Paul!
I love your videos 👍
Thank you so much for your kind compliment. So glad you like them
Beautiful pictures, I am in awe of your work!
What a fantastic experience! Thank you for sharing! The still images were absolutely beautiful! Well done video.
As always, a wonderful video Trond. I can't stress enough how much of an inspiration you are for the beginner wildlife photographer I am. I wish I was as patient, dedicated (and sometimes lucky) as you are when you shoot all of these animals, but for now I am at least trying! If only Bergen wasn't so damn rainy all the time, it would help getting out more than once every week...
Stunning bird. They are very rare visitors to the UK. I would love to see one. Thanks for sharing Trond, Superb images. 👍
Yes it is. Hope you got the opportunity one day. Thanks a lot for always writing to me John. Really glad to have you on my channel.
Wonderfull!
Another great video Trond!
Beautiful bird and one we don’t really see in the UK, so great to see it here!
Thank you so much! :)
Amazing video and photos 😍 I love the calls of bluethroats
Thank you so much! I love the calls too. Such a fantastic variety of songs it can mimic.
Beautiful pictures Trond, congrats..
Thanks a lot!
Beautiful mate. What a stunning bird 👌
Thank you so much!
Inspirational......I just love your photos. You show the same emotions I feel when taking my own shots, and the videos have a feelgood factor and I find them infectious. Keep up the good work Trond.
Just beautiful, beautiful, pictures of this lovely bird! Where in Norway have you taken these shots?
quality bird and images Trond great video as always loving that ghillie blanket
Thank you so much Andrew! I like the blanket too :)
You are one of the best nature photographers here on the canal. You feel your passion for nature and animals. I am very similar.
Thank you for these beautiful moments. Günter from Siebengebirge ( Germany )
wow...what a compliment! Thank you so much for your awesome support! Much appreciated.
Amazing photography !!!
Thank you so much!
The last time I saw a Blue Throat was in Afghanistan nearly 10yrs ago I think im well over due for a catch up with this class bird, thanks for the video it brought back some great memories 👍
I glad to hear that George! Thanks for the support!
Love your stuff Trond.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate your support!
What can I say, you did it again, great video and fotos, so as always keep up the good work 🙂
Thank you so much Per! So encouraging to read.
Keep up the great work Trond! great images.
Another masterpiece, thoroughly entertaining!
Thank you so much Martin! So kind of you
The photos looks so amazing ! Good Job Trond :)
Thank you so much Frederik!
Great video and one of your best. A beautiful bird and well captured. Problem is you make it look easy, I know small birds in the wild are a challenge. Well done!
Thank you so much Roger for your kind compliment. :)
So happy for you. Thanks for all of the links in your post. I missed this bird on my recent trip to Hungary in May but will still keep trying for it.
Hi Joshua! Thanks a lot! Best of luck in finding it. Hope you succeed
Love your videos！
Fantastic video as always!
We see the Bluethroat (here in Portugal) only a few days during the migration periods. It is a beautiful bird!
Thank you so much! :)
I just found your channal and I like your videos and pictures.
Fantastic video and images Trond, your videos continue to improve with each new release, well done 👍
Fantastic shots Trond. Did you use a TC with the lens? And what was your aperture? - beautiful blurred backgrounds
Thanks a lot! I did not use converter this time. The aperture was always f4.
Lovely images - video and stills - we last saw these beautiful birds on Magerøya - amazing. Happy hunting and thanks for producing these fine vids. :)
Thank you so much for the nice compliment.
Fantastic 👌
Thanks!
Stunning video and images Trond :) I saw them once in Lapland many years ago - amazing birds!
Thanks a lot Geoff! Yes they are rally beautiful birds :)
Very nice mate! A truly magnificent bird. That waterfall in the beginning looked familiar, but I can't quite place it right now :)
Thanks mate! The waterfall is in hundedalen just before sirdalen. Beautiful place.
Very good video. Some lovely images. What I can't figure out is that you wear green clothing, a ghillie blanket, camo netting over your face but you don't cover your hands. They are like waving two flashlights around for wildlife that have much better eyesight than ours.
Thank you so much! Your right. I had gloves with me. Sometimes I try cover my hands in the blanket. But this time I did not saw it to be necessary. But your absolutly right!
Another great film. I love your enthusiasm for every subject. May I ask what gimbal head and tripod combination you use please?
Loved seeing the bluethroat we don't get them where I live lovely bird great images fantastic video thanks. I noticed you seemed to use centre weighted focusing I always use spot focusing for birds should I change I'm using Pentax K3 and Sigma 50-500 Lens.
Thank you so much! I use group focus and single, depending on, if its something in the foreground.
Great video... A bird very high on my list of birds to photograph but unfortunately not that common here in the uk.
Thank you so much! Its an awesome bird. Hope you got the opportunity one day.
Amazing photos and video. I have the portable chair hide like you. Do you prefer using the guille blanket and suit now?
Thank you so much! I like the chair blind as well. And was thinking of using it in this video. But the hillside was steep and hard to find a good spot for the blind. So I used the blanked in sted.
Hey Trond
Great video as always
Could you maybe share some advice on how to find the ptarmigans.
Thanks a lot! I might do a video on that later this summer :)
Really great shots again Trond!! Could you do a video where you go through and edit your bird photos. Like show us your workflow. Thanks again!
Thank you so much! I might do that...thanks a lot for the suggestion :)
do you use the d500 for recordings also?
🖤 📷
That 500m F4 went trough a lot, when i see those scratches.
Haha....yes it has. Plus I bought it used. And got a good price because of the scratches.
Do you mostly use a ghilli suit or a blanket?
❤
cool :)
Great one. Do you use gloves with some camo too?
G'day Trond: Thanks for this great video. I was wondering if you might share your focus techniques in an upcoming video. I ask this as I noticed that at 8:55 you are focused on the feet of the bluethroat. Was this because it is in a similar plane to the head/eyes and at f4 it should still be in focus? Am very curious as this is an area where I really struggle. Cheers, Paul.
Thank you so much Paul! It was so hard to film in the view-finder when taking pictures. So I missed the focus. Normally I aim for the head/eyes.
@@trondwestby 🤣😂👍🏻 No worries and thanks for the reply. Thought you may have had a secret technique. On a side note, am really enjoying your videos at the moment as they are both well produced & quite motivating. Cheers.
Is it in the same family as the Robin by any chance
I am not sure, but I believe so.
Lar meg imponere av at du får til å få det du fotograferer til å stå ut mot en perfekt bakgrunn..Du inspirerer meg til å prøve å få til noe i likhet..men...Forsett med å inspirere Trond..😊
Tusen hjertelig takk for den oppmuntrende kommentaren. :)
