How an animal is standing, walking or flying can make or break your image. Waiting for that critical moment when the stride is just right and knowing exactly when to press the shutter will move you from just ok to really WOW images. During this one hour presentation by professional wildlife photographer Jennifer Leigh Warner we will discuss when the body position looks right and how to look for the perfect lighting conditions.
