King Of Congoby TobiComment by HarveyG: I'm hard pressed to comment on your image. I'm trying to do them all. Without being too harsh I'd like to say that when shooting animals, especially for a magazine of such photographic quality of NG, you need to get your exposure right. Shooting dark animals or birds is very difficult. Balance the fur and eyes to get definition but not blow out the rest of the subject. NG do allow dodge and burn, it's one of the few PP techniques that they do. So, when shooting animal AND environment shoot in RAW, spot meter the GREEN LEAVES/FOLIAGE, lock the exposure using AE-L, recompose to him and shoot. Try it and you wont get a washed out look. Next step, get the animal to engage YOU, or wait till he does. Try zoom in on his face and get a full portrait, with a catch light in the eyes if you can. there's no harm in shooting in the zoo or animal park. It's perfect to get your technique right before facing a Grizzly in Yellowstone :) |
