First time behind a 300mm lens 📸 . Phones are great. But getting this close to a lion, a wild dog, or an elephant doing its thing? That’s a different kind of buzz. . This trip taught me more about wildlife photography than I thought it would. It’s not just about pointing a camera at an animal. It’s about catching them actually doing something. Anything other than sleeping, which apparently they do for 18 hours a day. . My favourite shot from the whole trip? A bird with a tiny fish in its beak. Didn’t even notice until I got home and pulled the photos up on my laptop. That’s the bit nobody tells you about wildlife photography. Half the magic happens later. . Still teaching myself how to edit them properly. Sliders are a whole other learning curve. But the bush is generous, and the 300mm did most of the work. . Let me know if you think im onto somthing… 👀 #wildlifephotography #tanzania #safari #amateurphotographer #sonyalpha
