| Hyena Observing |
One of the most impressive animals in Africa, the spotted Hyena. They suffer from a bad reputation, but are actually amazingly intelligent and beautiful creatures to behold. Here we have one observing a pack of Baboons nearby.
Thank you Estee for joining me on this wonderful trip to South Africa!
What do I like about this photo? The beautiful animal, with the intelligent gaze. I used an open aperture to create a shallow depth of field, so the Hyena is in focus, but the background is blurred out. The color contrast between the Hyena and the rest of the photo also makes it stand out.
What would I want to improve? The background is somewhat noisy. The vegetation on the front hides the Hyena somewhat. A lower angle of view might have made a more dramatic photo, but at the cost of the vegetation hiding even more...
