Wildlife Photography

Uwe Skrzypczak, photographer and environmentalist, wrote this book with several goals in mind—to teach the technical aspects and the workflow of digital wildlife photography; to show the beauty of East Africa and his beloved Serengeti National Park and to educate about its habitat; and to provide a guide for the photographer who is planning to go on an African photo safari and wants to be prepared to capture the finest possible images.

Uwe draws upon his own vast experience in wildlife photography to teach about equipment requirements, digital photography techniques, "on the road" workflow, the logistics of transporting your gear, and image editing. He also covers the practical aspects, from shooting animal portraits to camera panning to capture that speeding leopard. Example images are accompanied by pictograms showing which techniques are ideal for capturing the specific situation.

Loaded with hundreds of breathtaking images, this comprehensive textbook is perfect for the beginning wildlife photographer as well as the seasoned pro. Whether your subject is African wildlife or bird photography in the Arctic Circle, Uwe Skrczypczak’s Wildlife Photography will teach you the fundamental concepts and techniques that can be applied to all forms of wildlife photography.
