Pro photographer Paul Burwell is publishing a series of “Learning Wildlife Photography” articles in the instructional category of his blog, Wild Shots. There are tutorials on lighting, composition, equipment, getting close and much more.
Paul’s tutorials are very informative, and a great resource for anyone looking to get into wildlife photography. As someone who has little experience in this field — the extent of it is shooting a few animals at the zoo — I was surprised to find that Paul uses a flash in many of his pictures. One result of doing so is making the animals look much more “alive” by putting a bit of catch light in their eyes.
