Yaaaaay, mating! by woxys

Hi woxys, can you tell us a little about yourself?

:iconwoxys:
I am from the Czech Republic, which is a country in Central Europe - I have a younger sister, but I live alone in our capital. Sometime I feel a bit lonely there, but that's the part of the independence, I guess :-) I totally love my job, which has nothing to with photography, but still it can be very creative and it definitely benefits my life!


What attracts you to wild animal photography?

:iconwoxys:
Honestly, at first I started shooting animals juts to get some faves :D then I fell in love. Because although I take photos only in zoos, it still resembles hunting a bit. And I am definitelly a hunter!

What kind of gear do you use?

Canooooooooooooooooon! :heart:

What made you focus on (wild) animal photography?

:iconwoxys:
I simply love animals and when I visit zoos with a camera, I can be close to them - we have modern zoos here in large natural enclosures, so there is a chance to take some acceptable images of them :aww: I am only unhappy we have no dolphinarium here :(


How did you learn to photograph wild animals?

:iconwoxys:
Learning through the failures :D and it is mainly just fun!


I don't care, I just eat by woxys

What do you do to improve?

:iconwoxys:
I just keep trying and when I really want to shoot some animal, I am usually successful at last :D but... it is rather a matter of being stubborn ;)


Is there something you wish you'd known sooner?

:iconwoxys:
I wish I could manage my camera and also photography in general also from the technical side :( I still don't know what ISO is :(


That's hot by woxys

Do you have any tips for wild animal photography?

:iconwoxys:
Just love animals, learn facts about them and enjoy photography :D
