    I hope people really appreciate what Morten does in these videos. Not only does he do incredible photography, but he is also like a 2 man film crew. It is so well done, and watching is a true pleasure. As someone who makes videos as well, I can't imagine the amount of work that goes into a video like this. Such an inspiration!

Such amazing scenery and that seal photo is definitely one for the 2023 calendar 😛 Even though you found it hard to describe, you described exactly how I feel about visiting/seeing old buildings. Looks like your bear alarm got a small upgrade from the last time you visited Svalbard. I would still 100% run into it though 😅

That is amazing. Yes the alarm got an update and this is much better. I am now building one up from scratch for my next trip. A completely different system with sound only. See you out there...

The way you filmed it always makes me feel a little bit part of your journey. Thank you for putting soo much work and effort into the filming and sharing it with us.

    When seals are in the water they are difficult to get good pictures. Like you said, they don't keep their head out of the water very long and they can spend up to about 20 minutes under water. They are quite common in Puget Sound in Washington State in the USA. I see seals about 60% of the time usually about 30 meters off shore. I am surprised how many people don't notice them.
    I enjoy watching how you set up camp. I was surprised to see you drink from a stream. Around here I am going to filter at least and probably boil.
    That is a cute little old shelter you showed us. As always, I enjoy watching your videos.

    • @MortenHilmer
      @MortenHilmer  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Jeff and thanks for you kind words.
      The streams on Svalbard all comes from the glaciers so the water is super clean. Here in Denmark you have to be more carefull because of farming etc.
      Yeah these seals are really difficult - luckily they are very curious:)
      Take care - see you out there...

    out for the next video and I'm sure you have more exiting things to show. Beautiful landscapes with the shifting weather. Love watching your videos with the inspirations as mentioned by many others, and the way you approach your photography with the elements of the environment. We know it's hard work, and many of us will stay tune for the next video.....maybe a polar beer somewhere...or fox, reindeer ? :-)
