Great action shot, Landi, and it’s definitely feature-worthy! It’s a pity there wasn’t more space included on the sides. To enhance it further, consider reducing the overall exposure and selectively dodging the gazelles and dust for added contrast. I can also imagine this photo in black and white, which with a proper edit…Read More

We missed this birth by a few minutes. The calf was just standing as we got there and still falling over as he learned to navigate his legs.

Jip.. is one of those problematic light moments with a white bird fishing in reflecting water at the wrong time of the day. I have many of them, and converting to black & white is about the only way to go. Next time, try using a slow shutter speed for a creative effect; it works well.

We went searching for Jackalberry early one morning as he was spotted with a kill in a tree. After scanning the tree extensively and seeing only the remains of an unlucky impala, I noticed this gorgeous, large face staring at us from the dark…Read More

Wow Landie, this is such an amazing image
I particularly enjoy your composition with your subject looking out of the frame allowing negative space to the right to include the environment. Beautiful side light, warm tones, and water droplets dripping down, add so much impact. Thank you for contributing towards our October wildlife low-light posts. -

Thanks for sharing, Landie. We love the gorgeous lighting and nuanced contrasts! This isn’t the Photo Critique Group, but we’re curious: why did you set the aperture to f/29? At f/11 or f/16, for instance, the picture would have remained tack-sharp and allowed for a lower ISO. This would have provided better quality, especially if you plan to…Read More

Just a heads-up, we noticed that you are posting your images in both the Wildlife Group and on your Profile. The good news is that there’s no need to post your images in both places. Simply post in the Group, and it will automatically appear on your Profile.

Nutty Facts to Make You Appreciate Squirrels
1. Squirrels can find food buried beneath a foot of snow.
Food is important during the cold winter months for squirrels. It makes sense, therefore, that some species are able to smell food under a foot of snow. The squirrel will then dig a tunnel under the snow, following…Read More
