Capture Magic Moments in Nature Photography
One of the best parts of photography, especially wildlife photography, is the magic moments. You know what I mean: Everything just falls in place in the most unexpected and beautiful way that you know, you just know, you just got something special. The setting, the lighting, and the subject come together to create something you couldn’t even have hoped for. The photo above is one of those moments. Late last fall, my wife and I decided to visit one of my favorite photography spots, a local wildlife reserve managed by the State Game Commission.
