Stuff Seth Sees

I’ve set a goal of shooting more wide angle wildlife this year. Not only does this challenge my composition and photography skills, but it also pushes my ability to get close to wildlife. For an effective wide angle shot, I need to be within 3yds of the subject, instead of 15 or more away.

It’s a challenge, but it does keep the hobby fresh and forces me to think outside the box. It also provides a unique perspective on the birds

Luckily, some individuals are good subjects.

I wish I could tell you that I had to wear all sorts of camo and wait for hours on the top of a mountain to get this shot, but I didn’t. I sat on my butt on the pavement and just clucked and made chicken sounds. Mr. Willow came right up. These birds are just funny.

Take the easy shots as they come!

Go get lost.
