Photographing WATER

“Water is an excellent photographic subject and is well worth spending some time on.”

As we all know water is vital for life and as a result animals and birds are found in close proximity to it. For wildlife photographers this is good news, particularly in the dry season when they tend to favour areas close to waterways. You could do a lot worse than work the roads along the rivers in the Kruger National Park but, aside from increasing your chances of finding animals, water itself is an excellent photographic subject and is well worth spending some time on. Reflections, movement, water droplets on flowers after rain, spray, rainbows, waterfalls and puddles on rocks are but a few things worth shooting.
