    Started wildlife bird photography at the age of 10 in 2014, watching this exact video still feels amazing and exciting as it used to feel the first time❤

    I've been looking at the growing trend towards Canon, but having seen this fantastic video (thanks heaps Chris!), I think I'll stick with my old and trusty Nikon! :D

    Beautiful photography of people of a culture that is in danger of being "modernised". You appear to have a wonderful relationship with the Himba people.

    True world of Pros means that if you have only the money you are out of game. If you have only talent, you are still out of game. So unfortunately we needs both. In my case I didn't get money so I will never know if I got talent. But for sure I am a passionate ! Good job Chris ! You got everything

    • @aarontreadwell2771
      @aarontreadwell2771 5 років тому

      They're called flash extenders and depending on the brand can run from about $20 to $75. I use the magmod version, which while it's on the higher end, is really nice.
