Bird Photography With Nikon Z6. Egret And Cormorant

Описание: We are in Germany to do wildlife and bird photography and photograph some water birds. Today we focus on bigger birds like Grey Heron, Great Egret, and Cormorants. But there are also Great Crested Grebe, Swan and Coots that want to pose for the lens. I show you how to position your lens as close to the water as possible. Go low or go home!

🐺 ABOUT THIS VIDEO
We are still in Germany and return to my local lake around ten minutes from home. The coots and great crested grebes got quite trusting to my appearance. Though the bigger birds are generally more sceptic and keep a safe distance, which is why I hung up a camouflage blanket for some days to let the animals get used to my spot. After some time I got the opportunity to photograph the grey heron, great egret and as well the cormorants. Sadly it is not always possible to get the animals super close due to traffic along the shores.I placed my lens really low above the water like many times explained by Trond Westby to get the best angle to photograph. If you photograph this low it is easier to get a shallow depth of field blurring out for and background of your image.
