••• ABOUT THIS VIDEO •••
Location: West coast of Denmark
I have borrowed the new Nikon Z6II and because the camera is new to me and because I feel a bit rusty after a quiet winter I decided to go out to practice my skills. One of my favourite exercises is the aiming exercise and another favourite is the tracking subject exercise.
I was not prepared for the heavy rain that suddenly poured down and soaked all my equipment. It gives wonderful photos with the rain drops but after a day like this the equipment needs to be taken care of. I show how I do this in the behind the scenes.
I should definitely have brought a rain cover...
••• WHO I AM •••
My name is Morten Hilmer and I am a professional nature and wildlife photographer.
I work as a ILCP photographer, and nature conservation is very close to my heart.
I have served in the Danish military special unit, the Sirius Patrol, for two years and that has given me the skills and confidence to operate alone in the arctic regions. I have spent two further years in the northern parts of Greenland meeting the local people and working on photography projects. My driving force is a sense of adventure and my fascination for nature, and my curiosity and empathy for other cultures has led me to many remote regions.

Beside being featured in publications and in my books books my photographs have been awarded in the Wildlife photographer of the year and European Wildlife photographer of the year photo competitions.
