Wildlife photography was born a little later, in the early 186os, when a handful of people began taking pictures of domestic and zoo animals. Some images from this period - such as the poignant photo of London Zoo's last quagga, taken by the photographer in the early 187os - are widely reproduced to this day. The oldest surviving portrait of a wild animal is probably one of a white stork on its nest in Strasbourg, photographed in 1870 by an American, Charles A Hewins. One of the greatest challenges at this time was the heavy, unwieldy equipment, which made wildlife photography an essentially static endeavour. Enjoy this interesting article with images on the History of Wildlife photography. https://digitalphotographycourses.com/activity/p/5908/ Thu, 18 Jul 2024 14:40:26 +0200

Slow Shutter Speed Creations – Blue Light
Blue light photography happens when the sun is just a few degrees below the horizon line. At this position, the sun doesn’t directly illuminate the foreground (or your subjects). Instead, this indirect sunlight produces predominantly blue hues caused by an effect called Rayleigh scattering.
