By Carolyn Jones


For photographers, nothing will make them happier than being able to capture such great photo of an animal in Africa. For them, it would be a great opportunity just to at least have one photo. To begin your African wildlife photo gallery, a list of tips are provided down below to in order to achieve such accomplishment.

One, get out during the wee hours of the morning and go back to your lodging late. The best time to capture great images is during the golden hour when in the sky is painted in gold color. You have to be patient and wait for the perfect moment to catch images. At this time, you get to see animals running from every direction.

Stay close to the ground. Most animals are sensitive when they see humans, by being close to the ground, it cannot easily see you. This gives the opportunity to be as close as possible to them. When the image captured is on its perspective, it would look dramatic adding a story to the picture.

Three, the subject must be on the side leaving the center empty. If you are trying to take a picture as it looks perfect to your naked eye but it turns out boring on the camera, do some adjustments. Instead of putting your subject in the center, have it on the side instead. This way, the details are more enhanced.

Focus on its eyes. When you get close to one, try to catch its eyes and look to where its looking. When able to capture it looking at your camera, you surely will be very happy. The picture will look amazing as it captures the soul of the animal where its mood and emotion can be seen. Its as if, the image is real.

Set up your shutter speed to an accurate one. The key here is your shutter speed, the wrong speed not only will decrease the chance of capturing a good photo but surely all your catch are blurry. So, play with your camera first to find out which of the following speed is the right one.

Just prepare yourself for the right time to click those cameras of yours. You do not know when the right moment will happen. Prepare yourself so that when the time comes, you can really capture it. This needs time so just relax and be patient and everything will fall into places.

Seven, capturing moving photos. For newbies out there that wants to get a photo of a subject which is moving, set your auto focus to AF C if you are using Nikon and Servo for Canon. Other cameras have the same setting. Your center focus must be the head for you to capture a still photo while it moves.

The thing is, you really could not take even just a decent one right away. Practice has to be done in order to achieve such. So, keep on practicing until you find it easy to take moving pictures. Practice it with your pets first while you are still at the comforts of your home.
