Wildlife photography is devoted to capturing animals in their natural habitats. The animals are often photographed in action, such as eating, fighting, or in flight. Alternatively, more static portraits may be used to show detail of the animal of to depict it in its environment. Captive or controlled animals are often photographed instead of true wild specimens. It is arguable as to whether this constitutes true wildlife photography.
The techniques of wildlife photography differ greatly from those used in landscape photography. For example, in wildlife photography wide apertures are used to achieve a fast shutter speed, freeze the subject’s motion, and blur the backgrounds. while landscape photographers prefer small apertures. Wildlife is also usually shot with a long telephoto lenses from a great distance: the use of such telephoto lenses frequently necessitates the use of a tripod (since the longer the lens. the harder it is to handhold). Many wildlife photographers use blinds or camouflage.
