    Thanks for filming a vlog for me and showcasing my new Fjallraven diapers 😂 Great Video, Espen. I think my memory fooled me a bit. Even though I couldn’t join for the last day, we had a great time :)

    Those little cartoon like images at the end were really good, a very nice touch that helps to show why you go.

    When you get to photograph the Musk Ox in front of Snøhetta you know you're on a great adventure. Love the video, Espen. Great work.
    Time spent outdoor doing what you love, that's what its all about. Maybe we meet next time up there :)

    Intressant video 👍 Jag har i många år funderat på att åka till Dovrefjell på vintern, denna video gav mig en del nyttig information Trots att jag har varit där många gånger under sommar och höst så var det svårt att känna igen sig när allt var täckt av snö 😀

    Another stunning record of your latest trip. Interested to see that you were using the new zoom lens sometimes…how does it compare with the other one? It’s a lots cheaper relatively speaking so more in my price range if I save up for a couple of years !!!!

    • @EspenHelland
      @EspenHelland  10 місяців тому

      Thanks David 🙂 yeah it’s got an incredible reach and it’s a good alternative to the 150-400mm. I go into it a bit more in the video I did on it.

    Great video in and about Dovre, i am in the fortunate position where my girlfriend lives in Norway (I am from the UK), so maybe i should take a visit down at some point to see the Muscox. What a site they must be. I have visited Norway a few times now and i have to agree with you, the experiences are what makes the cherry on the top for me, in my circumstances, as well as the people you are surrounded by. I have seen a plethora of species, including crested tits and White tailed sea eagles, that i never thought id get this close to. Truly magical place. Once again great video, enjoyed your footage and pictures. Thanks for sharing!

    hi Espen
    beautiful pictures. I think they are better than previous years. What is the reason that you covered the brand of the camera with a red sticker? anyway, these are beautiful images.

    I know you can't answer this here @espen but is the new 600mm a worthy 2nd choice to the mighty 150-400?

    • @EspenHelland
      @EspenHelland  10 місяців тому

      Yeah, I would say if you can’t or don’t want to fork out the money for the 150-400mm the. The 150-600mm is a clear second option.
