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.
In this
short film from the
Contra Agency, take an intimate journey with wildlife photographer Michel d’Oultremont as he searches for the recently introduced wild bison of Romania.
Credits: Directed by
David Hayes; produced by
Hannah Salvanes Mclean.
