Continuation: Capturing Wildlife In Low Light
“Bat Eared Fox”1/1000sec – f/6,3 – ISO 400 – Nikon D5 – 200-400mm f/4 Lens – Flash did not fire – Camera support – Manual Mode
The foxes’ large ears, which measure over five inches long, help them hear insects moving underground, such as termites and dung beetles. Bat-eared foxes can even hear larvae chewing out of buried dung beetle balls! They can also detect the sound of harvesting termites chewing on short grasses.

About Me
Bruna Mentrup
TUTOR
I started my wildlife photography journey with nothing but a passion for capturing what I had seen unfold before me for years.
Determined I could achieve that, I set out with the most basic equipment, and eventually, my efforts were rewarded.
I, fortunately, love travel and being in my own company, so I spend months on the road in perfect partnership with the animals, great light, and the landscape. My confidence grew, and my images started to speak for themselves; so did my range of equipment, as did the awards.
My proudest moment was being made a Licentiate by the Photography Society of South Africa. I take so much pride in the steps I have taken, and it gives me such joy to see my work in magazines and hanging on walls of game lodges across Africa.
My philosophy is that anyone can acquire technical skills in photography. Still, you need heart, passion and a deep connection with what is around you to capture the finest of what Mother Nature has on offer.
