I Visited Norway’s Puffin Island

[@Oli_K_Nature]

Dear Jeremy, Honestly, this is the best wildlife video I've ever seen, because it has so many emotions and personal thoughts that explain the way to a photo and the dream behind it that it stands out incredibly from all the other youtube creators. Maybe their photos may be better, but the person in your vidos captivates much more. Thank you for that and all the best for the future to you and your family. Enjoy being a dad, because this is bigger than any photo......

[@JeremyNeipp]

Thanks so much for sharing! It encouraging to hear that the story impacted you so much. It was such a great experience in such a holistic way, and I’m glad that represented in the video. I can’t wait to embark on my new journey as a father! ☺️

[@adeline_95]

I think we can all agree that Jeremy’s videos just keep getting better!!

[@JeremyNeipp]

Thanks so much for the compliment! I'm honored! ☺️

[@wasil3k]

Yep

[@BlueCatMediaGroupInc]

Jeremy: I’ve been a network television producer and editor for over 35 years and was very impressed by the quality of your video. The narration, choice of music, shot composition and editing captured the emotion and also the plight of these beautiful birds perfectly. Excellent work!

[@JeremyNeipp]

Thank you! It's an honor to hear your words! Glad that you came across that way.

[@KennethRrvik]

Wow- just wow. I spent much of my childhood at Runde, as my mother is from the outermost farm on the island. My great grandfather was a lighthouse keeper at Runde Lighthouse, and my grandfather a fisherman. I know the island well, and seeing your beautiful film and images from out there brought tears to my eyes. The puffins, and also the kittiwakes, have been struggling to survive in recent years - and have fortunately been recovering slightly now. Thank you for showing them in all their beauty, and paying them the respect they deserve - and need. Your words at the end were truly lovely. Congratulations on the family expansion too!

[@JeremyNeipp]

I’m honored to hear the words you share from a fellow native of the island! Means so much coming from someone who must know the island as well as you and has generations of history. Glad to have represented the island in all its beauty and I believe it’s a special place that needs to be cared for. And thank you! It’s been an amazing first 2 months

[@matthewgehly]

Incredible video, Jeremy! Your storytelling is top notch as always: Narration, music, and visuals combine to tell a compelling tale of your journey and experience in Norway. Since we had chatted prior to the release of the video, I picked right up on the easter eggs that I was hearing in the narration and seeing in the visuals. The end of the video is incredibly powerful and emotional. The reaction shots from your family are priceless and the way that it all comes together with the rocker toy in the nursery is a brilliant touch. The vibrant images that you captured in Norway are next level. I love the closeups, but the wider shots that you worked to create with the harsh landscape in the background are so mesmerizing that I need to see this incredible place in person myself. I'm not able to travel with you during that time next year, but those who are able to do so will have the experience of a lifetime.

[@JeremyNeipp]

Thank you so much for the encouragement! Glad you picked up on some of the easter eggs :) It was special incorporating a personal touch and was honored it moved people as it did! Would love to have you join me in a future year and I know you would have an incredible time.

[@garydubberly6608]

Great video & congratulations on your twins! My wife and I have just returned from Newfoundland where we finally were able to photograph and video those adorable puffins. We were lucky in that we had no vast crowds as it was late May. The same birds you encountered we did as well. Puffins seem to induce the same response as the northern lights in humans, a constant smile, like a child at Christmas. We missed them in Iceland, Faroe Islands, Wales and Scotland but we finally planned correctly and achieved our goal. I’m almost 80 so our timing was good. Norway looks like a great place as well, beautiful cliffs and very photogenic. Thank you very much for sharing and again congratulations.

[@JeremyNeipp]

So cool! Yea it's good to go there slightly early in the season so you can avoid the crowds as much as possible. Was an unforgettable experience and I'm glad you were able to experience something similar. Thanks for the wishes on the twins, I'm beyond excited! :)

[@eiriksommervold8718]

This was phenomenal. The photos, cinematography, sound design and storytelling all on point. Can’t believe I haven’t come across your videos before.

Jeremy brings poetry, nature, God and LIFE full circle, and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL to watch! The striking way he captures the simple elegance of puffins building a nest home creates a poetic metaphor for his own new journey in life.

[@JeremyNeipp]

[@cameraprepper7938]

Nice video. I have been to Norway many times and I have visited the Island Runde 5 times. I think Norway is the most beautiful country in the World, it has got the Sea, the Mounatins, the Valleys, the Lakes, the Rivers, the Forest, just about everything for Nature, Birds and Wildlife. I have got hundreds of photos of Puffins. My first visit to Norway was in 1970, since then and specially the last 20 years many Birds species have declined all over Norway due to climate change.

[@JeremyNeipp]

Thank you! I agree, it's an amazing country with pretty unparalleled beauty! My extended cut coming out in October will feature more of the scenery. And yea the seabird declines are pretty crazy. On Runde what I learned is that it's mostly due to overfishing more than anything actually. The lack of fish in the north Atlantic ocean is making it much harder for those seabird colonies to survive.

[@cameraprepper7938]

@@JeremyNeipp I know, I have seen the decline on Runde and migration counts of specially the Black-legged kittiwake and the Parasitic jaeger/Arctic skua which are dependant of the Kittiwakes. If you go to Runde again, you must also visit the (almost) nearby Dovrefjell, Jotunheimen and Rondane with spectacular beautiful Mountains and speciel Bird and Wildlife.

[@AlexMcDougallPhotography]
