WILDLIFE
.
If you've ever tried to take family photographs that include your pets - cats / dogs etc. you'll know how difficult it is to get your pets to pose and look at the camera. Taking photographs of wildlife also poses similar problems. To take photographs of animals, your local Zoo is a good place to start in that the animals are contained in their cages, which limits there movement and improves our chances at getting some decent images. However taking photographs in the wild, requires more patience and knowledge of the animals we are trying to photograph. Where / when they gather, their habits all have to be studied before we even get the camera out. Also knowing your camera settings is essential so that when the opportunity arises you are not adjusting settings and you are focused on the subjects in front of you.
