Described by the famous German palaeontologist/geologist Ernst Stromer von Reichenbach in 1915, from fossil material collected from several expeditions to Egypt, Spinosaurus is regarded as one of the largest of all the known Theropod dinosaurs in the[..]
Depth of Field As an Overlooked Feature in a...
You're watching an eagle from a distance. With a wide curve it starts to fly directly towards you, while you get more excited by the second - until the magnificent bird is out of focus and you have to adjust the focus. As a matter of fact, you have to keep on doing that or forget about enjoying viewing it at all. This is a typical situation illustrating the "depth of field" of your safari binocular. The "depth of field" of a safari binocular refers to its ability to keep objects further towards the background and closer towards the foreground in focus without you having to adjust the focus. Stated in another way: Once you've focused on an object in the distance, how far behind this[..]

The exposure of a digital photograph is affected by the camera's aperture, shutter speed, sensor ISO rating, and of course the amount of light in the scene being photographed. An incorrect exposure will turn an otherwise well composed wildlife image into something mediocre and at worst completely ruin a shot. All digital cameras have an automatic exposure setting, so it may seem that exposure is something that is best left up to the camera. It's certainly true that in some situations your camera's automatic exposure system will produce properly exposed shots, but there are also many situations where it will not. Automatic exposure systems only tend to work well when a scene and the[..]
Want To Work With Wildlife? Become A Wildlife...
Wildlife can get out of control at times and someone is needed to put it "back in control". Wildlife managers do this every day.

They often do not know that there are many private company opportunities that exist in wildlife management. Governmental jobs are hard to come by and the ones who have these jobs keep them for as long as they can. This makes it difficult for a person who just graduated from[..]

Wildlife may be cute to look at but not when it's hiding in your house. Unfortunately many home owners have discovered that when the temperatures drop outside unwanted visitors start coming inside seeking warmth or food. Rats and mice can get into even the best maintained home through openings the size of a quarter where electrical wiring enters the home. Once inside rats and mice are good at hiding and in damaging the home by eating through wiring, drywall and anything else they fancy. They also leave their calling card in their wake and create a real health danger to residents who are exposed to them. Other creatures that you wouldn't expect in your home such as bats are not looking[..]

Commissioning a Wildlife Artist and What to...

You know that you cannot find a wildlife artist for a reasonable rate. Planning to appoint a wildlife artist, then look no further as you are going to get all the[..]
Tip 1: Miss the eyes and you've missed the shot. Getting the eyes in focus is key to capturing a photo of an animal. It's human nature to look at the eyes. It's how we determine emotion and how we connect. When I was in Homer, Alaska, I came across a moose on the move. Given it was early morning and the light was low I knew getting a fast shutter speed to freeze his movement would be tough, so I quickly adjusted my camera to lock the focus on his eyes, and took the shot. The majority of the picture was a bit blurry, but because the eyes are in focus, the shot was saved. Tip 2: Use a telephoto lens. Getting closer to the action, yet staying a safe distance, is the key to photographing[..]

Australian Wildlife
Having lived all around this beautiful country, I have been blessed to see much of the wildlife at close range. Some people are not at home with animals, especially wildlife, but I think that this is mostly out of unfamiliarity and fear. When you are around it a lot, you tend to value the exposure. As a child, the main types of wildlife I was exposed to, in their natural environment, were brown and black snakes, and kangaroos. The snakes I kept a wide berth from, both being venomous. I loved the roos, watching them in the paddocks, despite them being cursed by the farmers for eating all the crops. Living on a tropical island in North Queensland for a couple of years left me regularly[..]

Wild Things Tanzania Safaris - Birding On...
spent the night in the Udzungwa Mountains we watched the sunrise over the Kilombero from the top of Sanje Falls. The valley stretched out before us, first sugar cane fields and a mist shrouded hint of the game planes beyond. This was our destination today. We drove through the villages and colourful shambas until we reached Ifakara. This dusty town has a real wild-west feel to it. We stopped at the vibrant market and explored it with our guide whilst our cook bought fresh provisions. The stalls were packed with fresh vegetables and it was obvious that the farms in this area were very productive. Leaving Ifakara we drove the 8km to Kivokoni where we crossed the Kilombero River by ferry.[..]
Natural Track Safaris - The Silent Killer
The silent killer, the night stalker, the versatile hunter... and many other names have been used to describe this cat. Smallest of the four great cats (lion, Jaguar, Tiger) and at close range almost looks like a Jaguar. In the savannahs of Kenya, this cat has been confused with the cheetah by first time visitors. At a second glance you miss the tear marks of the cheetah. The leopard has been associated with darkness and many myths exist in the traditional African society. This has been due to fact that the leopard makes about 90 % of their kills silently during the night. The kill is then dragged and hoisted on to a tree for later feeding. These minutes before raising the kill up the[..]
