In-between recording chapters of Raghnalls Revenge where I describe bloodthirsty Vikings slaying evil witches and Kings, I like to stroll to the lake and film the wildlife. And this week we have Signets, and they are FLUFFY.

So FLUFFY.






 In my lunch break I left the recording room and grabbed my camera as I'd spotted the tiniest little black fluffy specks swimming about the canal by my house - Moorhen chicks! You can see them in the video when the dad is passing materials to the Hen among the reed, they're tiny!

For videographers, I used my trusty Csanon C100, plus Atomos Ninja external recorder, plus my positively ancient yet still working Sigma APO f4.0 300mm prime lens. If ever there were a good advert for build quality this is it - bombproof. I've had it since 1999!!!! And it is RAZOR sharp.
