What are the strategies for animal photography skills?

Expression method: shooting animals should be expressed in two aspects. One is ecological description, which mainly shows their living habits, such as rest, play, predation and personality characteristics (such as the bravery of tigers and the ferocity of wolves). Second, the description of form, each animal has its own form, such as camel's hump, zebra's stripes, pride like peacock, elephant's long nose, etc., all of which can show the aesthetic feeling of modeling.

Shooting skills: The shutter speed of animal shooting is generally not lower than1/60s. For agile animals, the shutter speed should be above1125 seconds. Focusing is not a problem for slow-moving animals, but it is more difficult for fast-moving and mobile animals. Regional focusing, fixed-point focusing and mobile focusing can all be used to quickly capture the ecological images of animals.
