PART 3: • SVALBARD Photo Adventu...
I am on Svalbard for 10 days to photograph wildlife and landscapes. My plan is to get dropped off by boat on a small desolated island and stay there for a little less than a week to enjoy life with wild camping, wildlife photography and beautiful landscapes.
After a very bumpy boat ride I manage to set up my basecamp and surround it with the polar bear alarm. Using the very last light I am making my first time lapses on this trip and I get a glimpse of both the arctic fox and the Svalbard reindeer. I don't get close though so this is a great opportunity to do some landscape photography.

Can we take a moment and appreciate how much effort this man puts into these videos. It is mind blowing to me that i get to watch this for free. The amount of time and effort to set up all these cameras by yourself, always be on top of everything capturing multiple angles and editing this perfectly to have no dead space in the videos. On top of that create stunning photos and time lapses. Well done, thank you for sharing.
Still a little masterpiece by Morten Hilmer, it's really beautiful the moments you share with us. thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏
Wonderful comment. Thank you very much.
Very similitude to the chilean patagonia where I live, fantastic adventure, congratulation..!!
I understand. It's such a beautiful landscape. I can understand the need for adventure and to photograph the wild. Your guns and rifles were very often predominantly shown in your video - and as we all know - the wilderness and uninhabited areas belong to those beautiful wild animals. Anyone would be aghast if any were shot or killed to protect a human - just for getting a pretty picture! Best of luck.
I don't know Morten, when I see these landscapes, feel the nature in a video, listen the sound of silence.
This is almost touching me, every person should make an adventure like yours.
Just for understand what nature is! Photographer or not. Taste how our species has grown.
Nice Job Morten, have a nice night.
So kind of you to send me such nice words Francy - thanks a lot
Morten Hilmer it’s a pleasure
When you post your videos such as these Morten, time irrecoverably stands still as you captivate the viewer with your wonderful story telling and drama of the adventure. Thank you for sharing this and taking us along with you
I am truly proud for getting such an awesome compliment. Thanks a lot
Totally agree. We love to come along with you on your trips. Amazing! Thanks Morten! Very inspirational and informative.
Yeah! It's Morten Hilmer time again. I can't wait to see part II. Thanks for letting us be part of your wildlife experience.
My three most favourite things to do: camp in the wilderness, photography (especially wildlife) and watch Morten’s videos. Keep up the great work 👍 makes me happy when you post new videos! And I can’t wait for part 2!!
What a compliment to get. I feel lucky to have such a great audience. Thanks a lot
I had started to panic, where are you? no new post.
Well worth the wait, another amazing video. A lovely mix of scenery and technical information.
Thanks Morten
What could be more peaceful than this ? I love this passion .
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks a lot Even. So glad you like it.
Hard to even describe what Morten brings to his audience. If ever there was an example of living your best life, it’s him. And always with gratitude.
More Morten, less of everything else.
The time on the video reads 00.00 and I'm hitting like now. My coffee is warm. Been waiting on this for long time!
Right?! ☺️
You are just awesome Jerry. Who could wish for a more dedicated audience;)
Happy International Polar Bear Day! Thanks for sharing your passion for wildlife and photography. Truly inspirational!
Lovely. I'm in bear country and your preparation is great. Ultimately it is to prevent the bear from being harmed. Early notice, then lots of noise and commotion and hopefully they leave, but something for the last resort for survival. More bears die here from being trained to find food around humans than anything else. With your preparation both you and the bear will live to see another day.
Thanks a lot for this great explanation Derek. This is exactly why I put so much effort into making the camp. Bears are definitely most beautiful when they are alive.
Man, this IS real life! Combined with photography it's perfect!
You are most definitely top of my subscription list on UA-cam Morten..excitement,tension,peace and tranquility all rolled into your videos..long may you continue following your passion so we can enjoy and learn from what you do
28 minutes go by like it's nothing when watching your videos. Absolutely love your work
What an awesome compliment Ken.
It was worth waiting for this video, thank you Morten, you are the best and the better.
Haha thanks so much
18:16 now I know Morten drink Nescafe Gold too. Thanks, enjoyed this video with my coffee
Perfect Sunday viewing, Morten. Outstanding work. Thanks for all the extra effort with multiple camera set ups. Great info on setting up for a remote location shoot. Looking forward to part 2. Thx.
Well hello!!!! You are seriously one of only a few people who can make me turn off Sunday football. I was so happy to see your notification pop up today. So awesome! I can't wait for the next!
Haha I am very glad to hear:) Lets see if I can make you turn off the football next sunday as well:) So kind of you to write
Thank you for sharing Morten. Looks beautiful. So peaceful Can't wait for part 2.
thank you Morten, for brightening my afternoon.
A meticulously thought-out set-up, with available technology to help you. With the back drop of this amazing landscape of sugar-almond colours to set the scene, homo-photosensis moves quietly and purposefully before retiring in his red cave...sleep well arctic bears and Morten.
Amazing! people underestimate the amount of work that goes into all those camera angles! thank you for the great videos!
Once again, Morten, you have illustrated why those of us who love Nature do all we can to experience the exhilaration of being outdoors!
The air, water, animals - your obvious caring attitude about all of it - and your talent for sharing it with us. Amazing video.
Can't wait for the next one!!
I love how much you can learn watching your videos, not just from what you tell, but what you do. The attention to details. Thank you so much, Morten. You are a great inspiration.
I hope you win an award.
This is true adventure . Your film making is top class Morten it has every thing . Drama great story telling great cinematography music and even jeopardy . All delivered with great charm , thanks Morten can't wait for the next episode .
Another great video by you Morten. So many of us are happy to see these types of videos, living through you. I've been on UA-cam along time and i will never unsubscribe, that's very uncommon, so thank you.
That is an awesome compliment to get Mike. Thanks so much.
Brilliant Morten. You surpass yourself every time you upload a new video. Looking forward for the second part. Hope to see you soon!.
Awesome Trip
My favorite youtuber!! Another great video Morten👍👍
I missed this part back a year ago when I first found your channel. Very glad I found it!
Thank you Morten another for sharing and showing your travels and your wildlife photo adventure. I like your style, fotoart and your content so much! Best regards from Germany-Bavaria
Se que es muy dificil. Tu trabajo pero creo es el mas bello del mundo. Claro ablando de fotografia.
Firearms & camera's my two favorite things in the world!
Absolutely stunning scenery as a backdrop for your camp Morten the mountains looked like castle ramparts, the video was beautifully filmed as always.
Dreamy, wildlife photographer's dream. Too courageous and resourceful. Extremely well made, thank you for taking us to this beautiful experience.
I like when you look at the muzzle 4.00. You are the bravest, Morten
It's amazing your videos are so engaging that 28 minutes go by like a blink of an eye. Your storytelling is so immersive. Peacefulness and calming with just a slight bit of danger. I can't wait for the next installment! And the animals! 😀
Amazing video Morten! I can't get over the number of angles you filmed from! It's like you had a crew. Awesome work for a stunning film. Thanks for taking us along with you :)
Whenever I see you've uploaded a new video I drop everything to watch it :) You somehow always manage to make them inspiring and relaxing and at the same time also informative.
I'm totally in awe of the view you had there. The timelapses looked fantastic. Looking forward to watching part 2! (Am I the only one who would totally forget about the bear alarm and set it off in the morning?)
Thank you for taking us with you.
Haha no - that is why I put a bit of gaffa tape on the line;) I almost forgot it more that once;) I am so happy to have you as a part of this channel - I love your encouraging compliments.
only just had chance to watch this Morten but as always its just engrossing watching how you go about being in nature and your love for it one good thing with only just watching is I haven`t got long to wait for part 2
Great video Morten. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of them. 👍🏼
Very well done, Morten. Loved the timelapses and your interesting commentary. When backpacking in Alaska I've used a battery-powered electric fence that worked really well for brown bears. We even stored our food inside the fence and never had a single issue with bears even though they were all around us. The fence is powered by two ordinary D-cells that last for up to a month.
Anyway, I'm going to watch Svalbard Part II now and I'm prepared to totally enjoy it.
At last! Been waiting for the Svalbard adventures and part 1 does not disappoint. Typical understated Morten-ness, chilling out with coffee and a rifle after arming the bear scarers in the middle of an arctic wilderness. Fantastic.
Absolutely fantastic! I’ve been waiting this video. I enjoyed all the video and now, I’m so impatient for the next chapter. Thank you so much Morten, thank you!
Seriously beautiful! Nice to see first thing gun is checked,loaded and sighted in. Great group for iron sights! Southerners just don't get the need for this level of safety prep. Great video!!!!
Thanks a lot Len. Nice to get a compliment from a guy like you. To be fair I was quite surprised by the group. Glad I didn't have to do it one more time;)
Such an awesome video. I cant hardly wait for part 2. Thank you again for sharing a small part of yourself with us. You are truly an amazing person! :)
Waited so long for this. Can't wait I know already I'm going to love it.
Very nice production Morten. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thank you very much ;) Morten
All I wanted to do is inhale the vast landscape air into my lungs…what views! Excellent! Thank you for sharing them. 🙌🏼 🤩 🙏🏽
This is the perfect location to inhale all the beauty. Thanks a lot Irene
You are one brave guy!! Thanks for sharing all of your adventures!! I love watching your videos, they are so inspiring! 💗
Great insight into your adventure. Shot beautifully and what a great place not many true wilderness like that left on this planet.
Another great video ! Thank you !!!!!!!!!
I'm mexican... I have been trying to start in photography for a while, but bad opinions didn't frustrate my dream ... 5 months ago I watched your channel and that hope returned to an inspiration ... Today I am on my way to a flowerbed of the Dead in Puebla MEX I have nothing left but to thank you: D
WOW! Great video! Looking forward to part II
This makes me miss Svalbards barren beauty very much.. Hoping to get the chance to visit briefly before next year, but I have my doubts. Eagerly awaiting the next one, all those moments you capture. Very beautifull. Thank you Morten!
super-dooper amazing, thank you, thank you, for such a beautiful video.
your 4K is so far crispier than other I have viewed on YT
So great place! I spent the whole year at Svalbard. As usualy - great episode! I look forward to part 2.
Awesome, love your camping wildlife photography excursions, thanks for sharing...
Funny story: at some point when you haven't posted a new video for a long time, comes a day when I am wondering when I'll see a new video from you, and each time, the next day, here come your new video! True story! I believe that's called synchronicity :)
Lets see if this will continue;) I should maybe be a bit more consistent though;)
Simply fantastic video, good content, good work. I can't wait for part 2 ..
Great!
Beautiful! put's you in this inexplicable state of mind. Awesome work!
