By Carolyn Jones

They know that getting one is difficult and only pros have the greater chance of having one. To start your very own African wildlife photo gallery, here are some tips that you might wanna know.

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.

Play with different angles. Most photography usually puts the subject in the center. Always doing this angle could bore your audience the moment your gallery is shown to the public since the concept just keeps on repeating. Try to put your subject on the side sometimes. This would allow you to let all the surroundings be seen while still focusing on the subject.

Four, look at its eye. If an opportunity arises, try to catch its eyes when it looks at you. Their eyes will bring your photo to life as their eyes depicts its mood and emotion. Your focus should be at it. Look at the animal and see what it is doing. When it is looking at a certain direction, do not cut it, capture the whole thing.

Know what shutter speed should you put your camera into. The perfect shutter speed is the key in being able to take a picture of an animal that is moving. If it is the wrong speed, it would just turn out as a blur or nothing is captured at all. Having the right one not only lets you capture it but will make it look for sharp and clear. An opportunity like that is hard to come by again so make it worthwhile.

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.

For those who would like to take moving pictures of a subject, the secret is in your camera. For Nikon users, set auto focus to AFC. For canon users, set it to Servo. Other camera brands almost have the same settings. Your focus must be pointed on the head of the animal and not on the body in order to get the best shot.

Trying to become a pro will not be easy, but if you just practice harder, you surely will be good at it in time. Keep these tips in mind and add apply it whenever you go on taking pictures. Nothing is hard when you are doing something that you love.
