How much research do you do prior to going out on the field? Is it important to know a lot about animal behavior to get the perfect shot?
Nigel; If it is a new location lots of research! Even for an area I know well, I prepare a shooting list of subjects I need. This is really important! Also I can “see” pictures in my mind that I want to find and create. I carry a notebook full of sketches of pictures I want to take – they are really scruffy sketches, but at least I am going out there with a clear objective.
