Assignment: Inspired Animals and Wildlife

Don't be bashful! If you want comments, give comments. You don't need to be an expert photographer to express your opinion about the work of others. You don't need to go into great depth. A simple remark about cropping, composition, color, subject matter, etc. can be of just as much help to a budding photographer as an in-depth critique.

Photographing animals--whether it’s a domestic cat or a lion in the wilderness--requires patience, timing and skill. It’s difficult to pose them and they won’t sit still for long. However, you can get some great shots by learning how to anticipate their behavior. Whatever it is that you want to capture, look for the lighting and composition that will enable you to emphasize this desired quality.
