Sometimes everything goes according to plan in wildlife photography. At least that's how it seemed to me when I was able to photograph Arctic terns and other limicoles against the light together with Nicolas Stettler. We also had fantastic light for the odin guillemots. In the video, I would like to give you tips on bird photography - from planning to autofocus and other camera settings.
