wildlife

Hi. This is my first time on your site. I am hoping to find an answer or suggestions to my question. I want to set up a remote camera but NO infrared. So I can not use a modern trail cam. Also need to capture night activity. Does anyone know how to set up an old film camera (or video cam) or...

Managed to walk right up on top of this Crested Caracara. She really wasn't worried about me for several minutes, then she decided to head off to a nearby feast.

Hi all, I have been staying in Germany for the past 3 years. I am interested in going for a vacation trip within Europe for wildlife phottography. I have been taking pictures of nature as well as landscapes using my Nikon D5200 18-55mm. I am currently interested in exploring myself in the...

I was out taking photos in the rain yesterday and saw a family of chipmunks eating seed I accidently dropped all over the place haha. But this one in particular didn't care I was really close to him taking photos, he just sat there eating seed. Nikon D610 + 70-200 f/4 VR 1/125th, f/5, ISO 800...

The Elephants of Amboseli, Kenya number close to 1,200 and provide a great opportunity for photography. The area doesnt get as much traffic as Kruger or The Serengeti. Due to this they also tend to be calmer which is essential for close more emotional shots. The Mara is another great place I...

Maybe this has been discussed before, however, I'm gonna ask... I would like to do some wildlife photography, just for my own use and enjoyment really. I have gone out a couple of times with little luck. I realize that its a "right time, right place" kind of thing. My question is, do you...

Looks like Alvin to me. I had a hard time processing this photo, I don't know how many times I went back and fourth with color & black and white. It looks awesome in both. I went with color this time because it felt more natural to me with green and cement tones. Plus the color of the fur just...

I'm surprised this chipmunk stuck around long enough to let me take his picture. Well, I kind of left some seed on the steps that he's been hanging around lately. I like this picture, thought I'd share it. Nikon D610 + 70-200 f/4 VR @ 200mm, 1/1000th, f/5 & ISO 280

Hello everyone, I came here because I am interrested in photography. I prefer wildlife photography, especially birds even if they are hard to take on picture! Recently I made a Facebook page named "AD - Wildlife Photography". If you want to see my pictures and/or if you are interrested in this...

Hi all, I'm new the world of photography and was wondering whats a good budget-friendly DSLR to get me started? Wildlife will be my main focus for now. Also, is it OK to buy used instead of new? I currently have a 12MP Sealife DC1200 (that was bought used) that I'll be using for diving this...

Hello everyone, the title says it all. I would need it for wildlife photos (of course :)). At the moment I have a 70-300 IS USM (not L) which is very soft, not happy with it anymore and need to step up. Is it still worth to purchase the mark I version of this lens? The mark II looks like a...

In many cases I prefer to wear full camouflage outfits for photographing wildlife. One of the primary reasons is that it reduces the stress that is put upon the animal, which I believe is critical for ethical wildlife photography. This has the added benefit of resulting in more natural behavior...

I spent two days of camping try to get a good landscape photo with my new Pentax K-1. I was getting frustrated because it was too dreary and gloomy and I was getting nothing good. Then this guy showed up by my tent. I only have a telephoto lens for my Olympus Em5 MK 2. Sometimes bigger isn't...

I know this is a really weird question, but... If a very small amount of urine gets on an SD memory card, can it cause corruption/damage to the photos stored on the card? A little bit of pee may have gotten on an SD card containing photos of a very rare bird I photographed yesterday. Very...

Hello there! First time I post here! I hope you'll enjoy these. A few shots taken during last winter in the very last moment of light of the day.

There is a small lake near where I live, which is home to a ducks, Canada Goose and American White Pelicans. This is a duck taking a break after a swim. D810 500mm ISO400 1/800sec f/7.1 - tripod was my knee as I sat in the grass.

I recently took a road trip out west and found the the animals to be quite intriguing.

Recently I shoot some photos of wildlife including birds and other animals on a trip to Kenya, As I am new in this field I am posting my shots here, your comments may help to improve my work

First time posting here, comments welcome. From the Henry Doorly Zoo:

Found a good spot to watch a Eastern Bluebird couple build a nest and raise their chicks. It's just not getting boring to watch them.

I saw this chipmunk sitting on top of these stones and shot low to get some of the grass in the frame, I'm really surprised how sharp I was able to focus at 300mm. Nikon D610 + 70-300 VR f/5.6, 1/1000th, ISO 400.

I went on a nature walk today, with the same lens as before, hopefully these are better than the last ones. Haha. I have some more of some little birds and ducks, but I don't feel they're good enough to keep. I don't know. Maybe I'll post them.

I'm fairly new to the game, only been a few months, but I shoot with a Nikon D3300. These particular pictures were taken with my 800mm infinity telephoto lens. I'm still getting used to the camera shake, but I would like some comments on what I could do to take better pictures. I tried my best...

Hi everyone, this is my latest album. tell me what you think about it, I would really enjoy if you are honest.

Took these pictures a couple of months ago while visiting south Texas. This fawn was on the move to go to it's mother and I managed to catch a few as it trotted past me. In the first photo you can see it calling it's mother. I am having a hard time deciding which is my favorite out of the...

Indian Leopard - Nagarhole National Park, India ------------------------------------------------------------ This past October I spent 20 days on safari in India. The jungles were lush and very green after the summer monsoons which provided an amazing backdrop for shooting in. This male Leopard...

I photographed this Elephant bull in the Kruger National Park, South Africa. Kruger is a great place to photograph Elephants as they are used to cars and they will come all the way up to the car and be really relaxed around them. This gives people a great opportunity to get great close up shots...
