Funny, looking for photos of photographers.

Will you laugh when you see these pictures of squirrels lifting weights? I believe many people will. It was soon said that this group of photos was posed, but many people questioned that the originally timid squirrel would listen to the photographer like that. Do you know how this group of photos was taken?

It is reported that the photographer who took this group of photos came from Sweden, named Geert Weggen, and the shooting location was in the forest near his home. The experimental object is an ordinary wild squirrel in the forest. Nuts are collected and prepared by Gilte Wigan for the purpose of being used as bait.

So how did the photographer get the squirrels to cooperate? It is understood that the observant Geert Weggen often takes photos in the forest near his home. He found a squirrel foraging in the garden every day. So he had a whim and designed a scene to make a squirrel a model.

So Geert Weggen found some nuts, made barbells for lifting weights and put them in the garden. Then Geert Weggen ambushed himself in advance, set up a camera, waited for the squirrel to fall into the trap, and then snapped it.

Unexpectedly, this squirrel really came. It is estimated that he is very happy after seeing so many nuts. He wants to move these nuts to the nest and share them slowly. Because nuts are too heavy, they may be difficult to carry. And all this process was secretly recorded by Geert Weggen.

I believe many people have seen the documentary Animal World, which was popular all over the world in the early years. Many animals were filmed in this way. Photographers secretly put down photographic equipment at the edge of animal nests for long-distance shooting, dig a cave where animals haunt, or set up a tent, cover it with grass, and then ambush themselves. It can be seen that this kind of photography is quite brain-consuming and hard. Worst of all, animals are often not seen for days.
