INTRODUCTION

What You'll Learn

I’ll take you through more than 30 wildlife images I’ve captured around the world and break down exactly how I captured each shot.

This is more than just a technical discussion on settings and lens choices though, as working with animals in the wild comes with its own unique set of problems.
