creature 20
this is the end for now of the creature series. I now have new respect for how hard it is to photograph wildlife so they are interesting and not just standing there. Problem is when they do things (other than run away - I’ve got lots of those pictures too) they get in the way. ’ so mr lion please kill & eat that antelope but do it so you are facing the camera and with the light coming from….’ or ‘so zebra family, would you approach the waterhole evenly spaced, ranging from small to large and drink so we can see your face from the left…and would you other guys stay out of the shot please..& zebra 3 please watch your shadow.’
