Capturing the Perfect Shot

When I was just 6 years old, if other toddlers were playing their toy guns and robots, what I do is to have a click on my camera. My parents noticed that I love it more than a usual kid’s stuff and so as Christmas gift, they bought me one. After several years, now I have reached my goal, becoming a wildlife photographer. But I won’t stop on that, I’m still on my way being a world-renown one. There’s just one problem I’m considering whenever I plan for a shoot. The only thing that hinders me in my years of experience is the cold weather whenever I go to various freezing places.

Just a year ago, we had an opportunity to go to Norway to shoot for some polar bears. I brought a lot of my thick jackets during the shoot while hiding in some icy, freezing to death places so that I won’t disturb them. I saw them from a distance and when I was about to take my perfect shot. Alas! I can’t move my arms! It was numb and I just didn’t get the perfect shot I wanted. I really regret that day. I had the perfect opportunity yet it just slipped away. I went home really disappointed.

Until in one forum with my fellow photographers, I told my friend about what had happened. My friend suggested me about heated jackets and so I checked for one online. I saw a site with heated gears and clothing. It was called Plusheat.com and it was the first time I saw that website. They have heated jackets, vests and even insoles. And so I ordered and how I love it when I tried it! I was amazed so as to say.

Before I had this heated jacket, I was so limited, always in a nut-shell. This heated jacket is the perfect solution for my shaking problem. Now, I can go anywhere, anytime I want! In fact, I was planning to go back to Norway and get back to those polar bears. I’m confident now that I can have the perfect shot I missed back then a year ago.

So go outside and enjoy the snow and cool breeze! But if you really can’t stand the freezing weather, you may want to use a heated base layer.
