Terri Cage

I was looking through Terri Cage's photographs since she was the main photographer for the equine trainers down in Texas. Even though she is mainly an equine photographer, she also does senior portraits and other nature photos as well. She is a great photographer and I love many of her photos and her logo. Here is her website to check her out: http://www.terricage-photography.com/

I really love the silhouette of this picture and the blue of what looks to be a waterfall behind them, it really adds a sense of mystical or almost fantasy feeling to the picture.

I like that she captures the action of the two baby deer playfully running after each other and capturing their expressions as well.

Even though I don't like the branches in the way of the mom and baby, I do love that Terri captured their expressions of looking at her and the mom being protective of her baby. 

Award Winning Images

I stumbled across some award winning images from photographers all over the world. The article is a little dated as the awards were for back in 2013. I assume they have had much better shots over the past two years, but I really was drawn to some of these one. I even learned a new fact on penguins and they they produce bubbles with their wings in order to swim faster. I also loved the layout for the picture with the elephants. The way Greg du Toit, the African photographer, set up the photo with the elephant running right in front of the frame conveys a message to the viewers. I was amazed at some of the photographers works and hope to find more from other years.

Scott Ryan

I was browsing Facebook, when I stumbled across some of my uncle's photographs. I really loved some of them and I know he recently got into photography with his canon camera. He focuses on nature and he loves learning about HDR and layers. I thought some of his photos were worth sharing. I really loved his tree that looks so colorful and I admire the reflection of the bird in the water.

Detail

I went on a hunt to take a detail picture of anything around me and stumbled across bunnies in the parking lot, around my school. I figured they would be more fun to take pictures of rather than macro shots of bugs, grass, or anything else I ran into on my way to get this picture. I really liked the different colors in the fur of the bunny and the whiskers and eye detail made me pretty happy too. I decided to do a close crop around the eye and where the different colors in the fur were most prominent for a more detailed shot.

Point and Shoot Camera

I recently got back from taking wildlife photos with my point and shoot camera and besides not having a tripod, I was a little disappointed with my pictures even when I managed to find something to stabilize my camera on top of. I decided to look up some tips for point and shoot cameras to get better photography.

I was comparing one of my bison pictures to one that someone else took with a point and shoot camera and I was jealous with the clarity they got. Granted I was really zoomed in for my bison so that contibutes to the noise and my ISO was about 400 because of the cloudy day. 

I learned that for non moving subjects I should have been at ISO 100 and landscape mode would have helped with a slow shutter speed to help focus on my subject more. I learned some small tips from this website: http://www.shutterbug.com/content/point-shoot-wildlife-photography-point-and-shoot-camera
