PHOTOGRAPHING DIPPERS in the SNOW with the CANON 1DX MKII

  • I made a last minute decision to head up to Derbyshire to catch up with my friend Sophie to photograph dippers and the weather forecast was for heavy rain but just like most forecasts, it was wrong, we ended up having snow and it was wonderful!
    It was quite a tough video to film and I'm sorry for any audio issues, the rain and snow made things a little tricky at times.
    I hope you enjoy the video and thank you once again for subscribing to my channel.
    .................
    The camera equipment I used for this video;
    Canon 1dxmkii
    Canon 500mm f4 and Canon 100-400 mkii
    Canon M50
    Canon 15-45mm
    This video was edited in iMovie

    Sending thanks for a life further enriched by your work. I spent about an hour this past Wednesday photographing and filming a tiny little black bird as it dove into the freezing, cold Virgin River that weaves through Zion National Forest in Utah. A couple months ago, prior to finding your channel, I would likely have walked past without a second look at this somewhat nondescript bird. I'm at the beginning of my birding and photography journeys. However, having seen your videos, I took the time to watch and film as it foraged in the river. With my return to internet connectivity, I confirmed the bird to be an American dipper. Thanks again for your posts. Sending postive vibrations from SoCal.

    Absolutely love your commitment to the art of wildlife photography - there's a certain kind of 'crazee' that is needed for those of us who brave the elements to get a photo, ie: good kind of crazy! Kudos to you and your friend for being out and about on such an awesome day - stupendous video. Take care and be safe out there....

    A beautiful video, I've been looking forward to catching up on this one. You really captured the Dippers so well. If you're in Scotland at some point and looking for a new place there is a place called Sma Glen. It's a really nice place, a very old bridge is there and a good walk following the river, dippers are there. In fact I was watching some from the car, there's like a small layby type carpark next to the river. I saw what I thought was a suspended nest, just above the water, and chicks. It was weird because suddenly I started to worry, the nest wasn't that far above the water and I worried about too much rain and the river rising, silly really but wildlife is so precious every bird or animal counts. I'm calmed myself with the fact that they know what they are doing. Anyway, fantastic video, footage and looking forward to something coming out soon, thanks.

    hi hope well awesome video im alex not pro but very passionate severely sight impaired/blind photographer going to be on episode of winter watch soon so keep an eye out about my visual impairment how it affects but also show how i go about doing my passion but also get it out tere show whatever ability is can do whatever want to achieve or do whatever u r into, would just like to ask opinion on the 1dxii for wildlife and what lens u use reason is as i use nikon z7 mirrorless with 24-200 i did have the sugma contemporary 150-600 nikon but got rid of it due to weight and then hired a 500mm pf but wasnt close enough had to crop so but pixelated so ok though so have been recommended to look at the olympus range or lumix range

    • @mywildlifeimages
      @mywildlifeimages  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Alex,
      Thank you for your comment. I look forward to Winterwatch even more now. I love the 1dxmkii for wildlife photography as it fast and solid however it is quite heavy and the shutter pretty loud. The Olympus range looks great and some of my favourite photographers use Olympus, like Tesni Ward, so certainly worth considering. I love the gear I used but it is far from light I'm afraid. If you have any more questions I'm happy to help, just send me an email at richard@richardcampionphotography.com
      All the best
      Rich
