Tequila Sunrise
Tequila, orange juice and grenadine for the “sunrise”
Playing with some backlighting to try and get that glowing warm look. I used flash coming in from the right back, with a white reflector to lift the shadows in the front a bit.
Taken with my Canon 650D and my Canon 100mm macro lens, on a tripod.
1/200 sec, f11, ISO…Read More -

I think the interesting cloud formation added significantly to this image. No, it’s not AI!

This was an image I took many years ago and posted on the then Photocritic where I was fortunate enough to win the Photographer of the year at DPC. I am sure Danie will remember that.

“Play with me Mom”
Beautiful interaction between a leopard and her cub. Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve.
Shot with Cannon 60D, ISO400, 1/800 sec at f/5
Would love some thoughts!3 Comments-
What a gorgeous shot! And such lovely backlighting, making those whiskers glow. Only suggestion from me would be to use a smaller aperture if possible (maybe f8) next time, to get both animals in pin-sharp focus. (I tend to make the same mistake, especially if I shoot in shutter priority, which is why I mention it.) But I know with wildlife, and…Read More

Jess, capturing a moment like this is truly a privilege. Your Leopard shots are strong contenders for a weekly award. However, there’s potential to enhance them significantly with some refined editing in Lightroom. I encourage you to submit all three images to our upcoming Pro Live Edit session. We’ll share the date and link in…Read More

Title: ‘Happy Hour’
5DMk4, Tamron 150-600mm, 1/1000 sec at F5.6, ISO 100
This was taken in the early morning into a rising sun. I needed to retain enough data in the shadows to give a bit of detail hence the high shutter speed. I had taken a number of fairly boring shots when the bull decided he would come to the party and complete the c…Read More6 Comments-

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.
