You must master the basics. One practice technique that will not fail you is this: find a location that speaks to you and just settle in, for at least 5 hours- don't move away. Watch the light, listen, and look.

Concise. Clear. Very useful indeed. Many thanks!

Sir, Is there any chance i can buy your used camera gear... my childhood dream to become wildlife photographer but I don't have that much budget to buy a new camera gear.

[@TerenceSzeto]

I'm sure there's a used camera market in your country - you got to find it

I never understood blowing out the background completely, the animal does have a home show it even if it is out of focus.

[@TerenceSzeto]

i agree!
