A Challenging Day of Bird Photography on the Coast

In this bird photography vlog I photograph shorebirds in a challenging coastal environment. I'll show you how I protect my camera gear and share useful tips on keeping safe, comfortable and dry on this rocky coastline. It's essential to plan and prepare if you're visiting a rugged coastline. Locations like this one can be dangerous, not just due to difficult terrain and other elements, but also for the incoming tide. Know your surroundings at all times so you can photograph seabirds safely by staying within your physical limits. Above all - respect the sea! This 'in the field' bird photography vlog was shot at Filey Brigg on the Yorkshire coast in the UK. 📸 Equipment used in this video: Canon R6; Canon EF 500mm F/4 Mark i Lens; Wildlife Watching Supplies Double Beanbag & Lens Cover 📸MY EQUIPMENT If you purchase any of these items that I use, and recommend, through the links below, I receive a small commission. 📷 ULANZI PRODUCTS Ulanzi & Coman Travel Tripod: https://www.ulanzi.com/collections/travel-tripods/products/ulanzi-coman-lightweight-travel-tripod?aff=605 Ulanzi VL49 Mini LED: https://www.ulanzi.com/products/mini-led-video-light-ulanzi-vl49?_pos=2&_sid=acb5ab1d1&_ss=r&aff=605 📷 AMAZON PRODUCTS Manfrotto MVH502AH Fluid Head: https://amzn.to/3sabeDP Movo GH700 gimbal head: https://amzn.to/2y2ekCg Canon EF 400mm f5.6 lens: https://amzn.to/2AnX8q8 Canon EF 1.4 Mark iii extender: https://amzn.to/2JsrWvY Canon EF 100mm f2.8 lens: https://amzn.to/2t34Jp6 🙋‍♂️ Have some Questions or want to share your own experiences in relation to this video?
