Nature photography is a hard business to master. Animals don't take suggestions or cues, they aren't trained and have no inclination to pose. These photographers have amazing patience, waiting for the best moment to take their shot. The following are examples of that patience paying off! |
Cold face, penetrating eyes |
'For my honor!' |
'Do you see anything tasty?' |
'No sir, for MY honor!' |
A perfect angle |
Always alert |
Friends for life |
Dust bath! |
Father and son |
Ah.. the good life |
On the field of battle |
Coming up... |
After sunset... |
This is definitely NOT fun |
African Elephant Having Breakfast |
Get up daddy! |
'Grey! Haven't seen you in years, how the heck are you!' |
'My brother has better aim than me' |
The Happiest Seal |
There's never anything in the freezer |
The hunter becomes the hunted |
'Show off' |
Nothing like a rest after a swim |
'If you fail my judgment, I may have to eat you.' |
Majesty |
'You seem weird, where are you from?' |
'Are YOU looking at ME?' |
'I may look different but I'm no less dangerous!' |
'Lunch!' |
Giants of Africa |
The jovial squirrel Monkey |
