Immerse yourself in the serenity of aquatic environments with the floating shelter

Photography with Hidrohide

Tell us what you want and we'll take care of everything else, so all you have to worry about is shooting.

up to 2 participants

HIDROHIDE PHOTOGRAPHY IS AN EXCITING AND UNIQUE TECHNIQUE THAT ALLOWS PHOTOGRAPHERS TO CAPTURE AQUATIC WILDLIFE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE WATER. THIS INNOVATIVE METHOD PROVIDES AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE AND EXTRAORDINARY PHOTOGRAPHIC RESULTS.

The hidrohide floating hide is a structure specially designed to float in aquatic environments, offering photographers effective camouflage and a discreet approach to aquatic fauna. This shelter allows for low-angle images to be captured, providing a unique and immersive perspective of animals in their natural habitat. Made with lightweight and resistant materials, the hidrohide is easy to transport and assemble, ensuring comfort and safety during photo sessions. Ideal for photographing waterfowl, reptiles and mammals that inhabit lakes, rivers and humid areas, this shelter allows you to obtain high-quality photographs without disturbing the animals' natural environment.

Let us know what you would like to photograph

Some examples: Common coot, little heron, great heron, glossy ibis, lapwing, little grebe, little ringed plover, common snipe, black-winged stilt, sandpiper.

Everyone is welcome, although the tour is aimed at photographers with reflex cameras (with or without a mirror) and telephoto lenses, with experience in wildlife photography. I recommend that you have some familiarity with your camera, as I don't know all the existing models and you may have to change some settings to try a new technique.

Before departure, in the briefing and during the walk, you will have the opportunity to discuss the settings, I will give you several tips to make the most of the tour and you are free to ask any questions.
