Wildlife at Your Home

You dont need access to exotic wildlife , show-jumping horses or trained canine athletes to photograph animals in action. If you , a neighbour or a family member has a pet , you have a ready made test subject to practise with. Enlist an assistant to act as your animal entertainer and arm them with treats and toys to keep your subject interested. Use a feather tied to some fishing line to encourage a feline model to run and jump or ask someone to throw a ball for a canine subject so you can practise your panning technique. The more homework you do , the better prepared you will be when you do manage to get out on that big wildlife safari
