"One of the biggest wildlife photography challenges is not spooking your subject. Shooting with large cameras and lenses can get you sharp, close shots but smoothly maneuvering your gear so you don't get noticed by your subject, can prove to be even more of a challenge."
"This amazing Wood duck shot was captured by OM Systems ambassador and Platypod Pro, Bob Coates. Bob Shares how he got the shot and smoothly shifted his gear around for the perfect angle without getting noticed by ducks on this popular lake."
"Beyond the gear setup that was used to capture this shot and his low to the ground approach, Bob shares post processing insights and camera settings to help viewers better understand how they can capture shots like this too."
"You’ll be able to capture images like a true pro. This video is part of our Platypod Perspectives series on YouTube, where Larry Becker asks the questions you would ask so you can learn the secrets of great photographers and get great advice from their experiences, with and without Platypod. In the end you'll be able to recreate great images like this."
"This episode of Perspectives is packed with photography education and gear insights for every level shooter."
