Wildlife photography is a uniquely challenging and exciting form of photography. For me, photographing wildlife is a wonderful way to appreciate local biodiversity. Animals, unlike people, have no concept of having their picture taken, so they can be much more difficult to photograph, yet substantially less awkward. When I photograph animals, I sometimes see it as a blend between an art and a science. When I photography something very small using macrophotography it allows me a glimpse into a very tiny universe that I could not witness without the camera to enlarge it. looking through the lens, I can see the details of very small creatures that most people will never get to appreciate first hand. Similarly, with telephoto lenses, I am able to view the details of an animal that would never willingly come close enough so that my eyes alone could fully appreciate it. Photographing wildlife gives me a greater appreciation for the magnificent fauna that hides amongst us.
