Introduction to Photo-Techniques - Mark's tips!
- Knowledge is the key to successful nature images. Try to learn as much as you can about your subject before you begin a project and continue to watch and record all the time you are out in the field. Time spent watching and learning is never wasted even though you might not come home with the shot.
- Choose a favourite species or location and photograph it extensively, exploring as many different photographic approaches as possible.
- Use new and innovative techniques to record your subjects in a unique way. We all know what a robin or a kingfisher looks like, so new images need to inspire and produce the ‘wow factor’ in the viewer. Not an easy thing to do, but far better to get one amazing image than 100 that have been seen before.
