If you enjoyed last week's video with Morten Hilmer in which he photographed mountain hares in the Scottish Highlands, then you'll be glad to find that he has uploaded a second behind-the-scenes video.

The weather is quite different this time around and Hilmer has shifted his focus toward showing us how to photograph wildlife by using a blurry foreground element in the bottom area of your image. Like last time, Hilmer is shooting primarily with a Nikon D5 and 200-500mm f/5.6E lens.
