Duade is now my absolute favourite bird photography video creator. There’s too many others out there with huge egos and too much equipment for their own good lol. Duade is the real deal and an awesome humble dude .

@Duade Жыл бұрын

You are too kind, I think there are many wonderful Photographers and KZfaqrs out there and the more that contribute the better it is for the community. Thanks again, Cheers, Duade

@donnajones2332 Жыл бұрын

Yep, that last one touches my heart! You are an amazing teacher and photographer! After 50 years of loving photography, 15 of which I spent photographing seniors, I had lost the joy. Now, after discovering you, the Joy is back, I love it again, and I can’t wait to get out there every day. I just bought a Canon R7 to get myself a little more updated and I’m beginning to follow your steps thanks Duane for a new lease on my photographic life.. at age 72!

G'day Donna, what a heartwarming comment, I am so happy you have found the joy again. For me enjoying the process of getting out in nature and the possibility of seeing and photographing nature is what keeps me coming back. Have fun out there, Cheers, Duade 👍

G'Day Duade. Back when you made this video, the Covid restrictions were just kicking in, and they resulted for me in much more often walking in nature, which in turn unlocked my passion for birding. In these 2 years, tech evolved a lot (eye-AF, high ISO quality) while you replaced the mirror (of the DSLR) with a grey beard. But these 6 fundamentals still remain very valid !!! Thanks a lot, I was a joy watching this older of your video's !

Thanks Werner, yes, these fundamentals will always be important even as the tech changes. Yes, its funny looking back without the beard now. Cheers, Duade

Thanks for the great tips. Going out tomorrow to see what I can get & your approach is very instructive. Love your favourite image too. I’d probably give it away if I got one that good. :)
