WILDLIFE WORKSHOP

Whether you’re a newcomer to nature photography or an experienced professional, the aim is the same: to improve and develop. It’s human nature to strive to do better and to learn, and this is why photography workshops are so popular. The Wildlife Photography Workshop isn’t intended as a substitute for attending an on-location workshop – there’s no better way to learn than doing. However, it’s not always possible to retain all the information you learn during a workshop; not everything will sink in. Also, workshops aren’t cheap; and not everyone can afford one, or justify the time spent away from work or family life. These are among the reasons why we decided to create this ‘workshop’ in book form. It’s designed to provide a useful, practical resource, covering all the essential tools and techniques you need to take better nature photographs. The book is illustrated with our own wildlife images, all captured ethically and using the skills and techniques we share over the next 11 pages. Put simply, this is a wildlife photography workshop in book form. We hope you enjoy it.

How to choose the correct optics for capturing wildlife photography

One of the key reasons why mirrorless and DSLR systems are the only real choice for wildlife photographers is their compatibility with a huge range of interchangeable lenses. You can customise your system by investing in the focal lengths that suit the subjects you wish to capture – for example, longer ‘telephoto’ lengths for photographing birds and mammals from a distance, or a macro lens for insects and other close-up subjects. Lens choice is important, greatly dictating the look, feel, context, and impact of your nature shots.
