Photo Tips Continued

*Forget the zoom- Some of the best pictures that I have taken have been without the zoom. I move in close enough to fill the whole frame with the hunter and the trophy. Use a tripod if at all possible and if you are shooting digital, set the compression rate low. You may not get as many photo's on your card, but they will be of better quality.

*Pick a good background - It may take some work to get exactly what you want, but as with anything else, hard work pays off.

*Take a bunch- Even though you think that you may have the perfect shot, make sure of it by taking a whole lot of photos. Try different variations and angles. You may find that the perfect photo was outdone by the one that you took off to the side.

*Alone at last- Though hunting alone can be great at times just to get away, you may find yourself as the hunter and the photographer. Make sure that you have a way to hold your camera, such as a tripod, and also know how to use the timer. Remember to use all of the above rules and make sure that you can out run the timer!!!!
