What does it take to capture the perfect shot in the wild? For Belgian photographer Michel d’Oultremont, patience is key. Poised and ready, he often waits for days to see any action. When the animal finally emerges in his viewfinder, the intense rush of emotion in that micro-instant of life makes the process worth it.

Which place is this exactly ??
lovely…this video touched my heart
Actually, I would definitely take the video crew that shot this clip over any photographer. They did a fantastic job!
Superbes images pleines d'une philosophie de vie que j'admire et tellement vraie. MERCI
Great photos! And video too. Patience definitely pays off.
Well done everyone involved, awesome video!!!
Exquisite…thank you.
That's a really fascinating style of photography. I take lots of pics of animals, but I always focus in on the animal itself. Michel's shots with the negative space or light are just staggering. So beautiful.
The cinematography is some of the best I have ever seen. This is an amazing short!
his words reminds me of christopher mccandless
Which lens is he using. Anyone know???
Heart Touchin Inspiration. Indeed Patience is virtue.☘️
Brought me to tears seeing the images and seeing the story. Thanks Nat Geo for the photography!
amazing documentary! I'd like to know which lens and focal length he's using.
Tres Bien…Amazing images
good documentary but you have taken photos are not good as i can say not professional.
good try. keep it up.
Esos raros desenfoques no me convencen.
żubr?!
Great
I love the fact that the film was shot in a style that matched the photography. It really helped to create a seamless feel. The way the subject never overpowered the scene, but was always to be discovered either by position or the low light. Very clever and film making and almost a tribute to the style of Michel's photography. Wonderful!

Thank you for sharing this kind of documents. Really motivating and inspiring for beginners like me!
The photography is amazing and Michel is able to put into words exactly why I love being a nature photographer. Wonderful video!
I haven't seen such emotions in a wildlife video.. wow….and those minimalist wildlife shots… speechless…
What is the name of the backing track from 7:11 to 10:45?
Excellent video by the way. 🙂

Thank you so much @NationalGeographic !
The bison pictures are some of the best wildlife photographs I've ever seen.
Wonderful pictures and movie, but what did you do with the sound? It's terrible. I wonder how you messed up sound re-encoding that much. Just watch the original video for comparison.

Oh, and you forgot to mention a ton of money invested in that single shot..)
Amazing work, these photos are incredibly beautiful!
I hope, I can be as good as this amazing artist, some day!
Wow! What a beautiful movie. It makes me question how I'm spending my time out in 'nature', and think maybe I should be spending a lot more
Inspiring! Beautiful photographs.
Impressive activities totally awesome…
Amazing photos but it's a tough living. Love his patience
Wonderful Michel! I found you on Instagram and just fell in love with your style of nature photography. Inspirational.
I want to see more videos like this
Great pictures! And even better to hear that there's European bison introduced to another beautiful place – Carpathian Mountains
