  1. @JohnAitchison1 In sun and not rain I hope ! 1.4x and ND on it's way.
  2. I posted 5 photos on Facebook in the album "Rivers" fb.me/1Vv3NsgjT
  3. @katemacrae Would be more appropriate for them to be presenting PlanetEarthDead next.
  4. @christiaan_may Marlborough Kennet mainly but also Pewsey Avon - lookinging in Jone's Mill (Wiltshire WT) Reserve that day.
  5. A 'Rivers' photo album is underway. I will try and add to it with other species I have been filming eg.... fb.me/12JByQTt8
  6. @watervole water vole sequence looking interesting incl mink and brown rat.
  7. Snipe no longer breeding in these Wiltshire marshes I've known 35 years.
  8. Fieldwork day off from lugging camera. Rare but wonderful water meadows.
  9. @WaterVole Yes. Shot last August when I heard footage was needed - partly what inspired me to start the Rivers film.
  10. @LMasseyImages Yes. Frustrating/great opportunity - I can get into the water by them - they're so used to people.
  11. Right distance, right light, right background, gorgeous colours. Useless without the dance.
  12. Out-take footage (now free for use by all the regional UK Wildlife Trusts) from 'Through the Garden Gate' plus... fb.me/12h9hnxYG
  13. Anyone tested the latest Chinese budget HD (Zacuto alternative) viewfinder-monitors with peaking for DSLR video ?
  14. Great crested grebes courting again on river in Oxford after loosing nest in floods.
  15. All outdoor types : be aware of tiny tick bites. Lyme disease. lymediseaseaction.org.uk
  16. Great couple of hrs filming a male water vole patrolling his territory this evening. Beginning to get a sequence... fb.me/1tHmHMiWS
  17. @JWildFilm trick is not to try and swim forward on your front but let you legs float up and paddle your way backwards to the bank !
  18. Learning what tricky little so-and-sos water voles can be to film. Scary filming raging flood waters in waders but low angle is a must.
