Wildlife photography is regarded as being one of the more challenging forms of photography. As well as needing sound technical skills, such as being able to expose correctly, wildlife photographers generally need good field craft skills. For example, some animals are difficult to approach and thus a knowledge of the animal's behaviour is needed in order to be able to predict their actions. Photographing some species may require stalking skills or the use of a hide/blind for concealment.
While wildlife photographs can be taken using basic equipment, successful photography of some types of wildlife requires specialist equipment, such as macro lenses for insects, long focal length lenses for birds and underwater cameras for marine life.
Wildlife Viewing Tips
- Dawn and dusk are the best times for viewing. - Drive to or visit likley places, especially wildlife refuges or national parks. - Use binoculars or a telephoto lens to get a great close-up shot. - Watch from a distance so both you and the animal are safe. - Be Patient because even when wildlife is abundant it can take time to spot. - Make noise when you travel in thick brush or near spawing salmon to avoid surprising moose and bears.
