I am off grid on a small peninsula near the West coast of Denmark on a 3 day bushcraft trip with my camera. Making a base camp in the woods from where I can hike to the surrounding nature is a great way of doing wildlife photography.

The camera gear itself is quite heavy itself so I decided not to bring a tent. I love wild camping and on the first night I simply slept underneath a big tree while the moon rose and I could fall to sleep to the sound of the camp fire and the ducks and geese nearby.

I hoped to get close to the deer in the area but I had no luck. A few short glimpse was all I got. I got close to a group of swans and I was lucky to get a few good photos of these beautiful birds.

For me this is the very best kind of nature photography. Being alone in nature for a period of time without high expectations just spending some days and see what happens.
