I photograph Eagles in BC a few times a year. Your shots are spectacular, and arguably, the best Eagle shots I’ve ever seen. Your narration takes it all to the next level. Keep it up Mark. You make a lot of people very happy. One day I’ll join you on a tour.
Breathtakingly beautiful. You ve got this A1 working superbly. Those low light shots are just unbelievable. And the accompanying narrative is the icing on the cake. Well done Mark. You are simply the best.
Hi Mark, This was your best yet, and that’s saying something! We really enjoyed your camera work and your presentation, loved the great music in the background-just right! Inspiring and beautiful, thank you. -Fraser and Jeff
What an amazing confluence of video, photo and narration...it really feels like having the front row seats of the show. Thank you Mark for bringing the most adorable wildlife content on You Tube...hopefully one day, I will be able to meet you in person and join the workshop...till then, please keep them coming!
Cinematic ...Dramatic...Fantastic... The Tale of the Eagles set in a picturesque landscape...Those perfect dives against the backdrop and action in the sky and amidst the surging waters with the golden hour photography which is the showstopper . ..The golden glow illuminating the Eagle ..Totally Mesmerized ...
Now THIS looks like another book to be made! Love this video! Just amazing! For someone who isn't physically able to see this in person I truly appreciate you posting it. Great job Mark! As always!
National Geographic needs to know about you.. Wow!!! You made me feel like I was there... Your photography is terrific.... Your narrative was great.... You're the best tour guide .... National Geographic Needs to hire you....
I can't help but sit in awe and wonder at these beautiful creatures. You've done an excellent job capturing the beauty in these moments Mark. It's impossible not to feel moved watching. I just purchased your Osprey book. My son and I started making our way through it already.
Impressive photography man... Really majestic! I think I would never have the chance to appreciate such details if it weren't for you sharing these. Thank you!
Always love your videos and the wonderful way you tell the stories of our precious bird life. An inspiration in so many ways. Astounded at them sight of so many eagles. Value this opportunity to share across the thousands of miles that separate our environments. Thank you.
I love your work , simply beautiful and amazing photography. I call that the golden time of day , the golden sunset that lights up the sky then slips away. 🔥👍🏼
Astounding photos and video. I noticed something interesting at 5:36 in the video where the eagle eats on the wing. When the bird temporarily lets go of the fish a few times to rotate it head first for easy swallowing it does so in sync with downward beats of it's wings and a slight upward movement of it's head. This leaves the fish 'weightless' for the small time the beak isn't clamped on the fish. Clever Eagle 🙂
I've had the good fortune of seeing a bald eagle, an osprey and a hawk all in the same line of vision while fishing in N.E. Florida... Great clip, AGAIN. Thanks.
Wow Mark !! That was just crazy, it must have been an unbelievable experience when you were shooting this to know that you have hit the jackpot with this session !! 😎 Words cannot describe your incredible talent, coupled with the incredible birds of prey that are a symbol of this great nation ! Sooo many thumbs up !!!
Great narration, video and photos, Mark. I was meandering along a trail on White Fish Island, down near the rapids where I live, when I met a husband and wife each with a camera equipped with a long lens. He shared an image of an osprey, fish in tow, that he had captured. I said to him: "There is a fellow, I think in the Florida area, who takes great pictures of birds of prey." He responded: "You mean Mark Smith? I use some of his recommended settings." That's proof that your birds fly far and wide. 🙂
Awesome! Just awesome, Mark! You are the best when it comes to breathtaking photos and footage mixed with equally exciting narration of the action. We have visited the Gulf Islands numerous times and love it up there.
Awesome video as always, Mark! Love how you combine the action and images with your great narration to tell the story. This is on my bucket list for sure.
Wow wow and wow after watching your videos from the start I can honestly say these are the best you have ever taken. They are stunning and to say they are the best you have taken is a massive compliment 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing video and photos Mark!! I cannot get over the eagle catching a fish, then having a snack on it while in flight! And, you not only got video of that, photos as well!! Fantastic!! 😀
Amazing videos of the bald eagles so many of them 😮😮. Awesome to see them flying so high and picking up the fish by spotting them from far away and coming at the right moment to catch the fish.
Mark is arguably the BEST Wildlife Photographer in the business today, and also has the best video one could ask for. I have followed Mark for years and celebrated with him when he passed the 5,000 subscriber threshold. I think we should all make a concerted effort to get Mark over the 100,000 mark by recommending his videos far and wide. Please help me in this quest. I am not affiliated with Mark in any capacity and only ask, as yet another Photographer, that you join me to help give recognition to a guy who is grossly under recognized. God Bless and Thanks, Gil, Largo, FL
I went out there with my new Sony 200-600 last summer. I had SUCH a hard time even tracking a single bird, nevermind get a good shot, like yours! Need more practise! Thanks for sharing!
Outstanding Mark !! Looks like a nice relaxing place full of adrenaline fueled picture taking . It’s seems a hard balance in those situation to take it all in and enjoy and taking a lotta pics and trying not to miss anything at the same time / Pretty dam cool if you ask me . Excellent pics and video ! Ol Scotty Kansas City
