- Wildlife photography (e.g., lions, elephants, birds)
- Pet photography (e.g., dogs, cats, horses)
- Conservation photography (e.g., endangered species, habitats)
- Animal portraits (e.g., close-ups, studio settings)
- Action and behavior photography (e.g., hunting, playing, social interactions)

Composition*: Consider the animal's environment and use the rule of thirds to create visually appealing compositions.
Focus on the eyes*: A sharp focus on the animal's eyes can create a powerful and engaging image.
Experiment with angles*: Don't be afraid to get low or climb high to capture unique perspectives.

Approach animals calmly and slowly, and be prepared to wait for the perfect moment to snap a photo.
Understand lighting*: Natural light is ideal, so try to shoot during the golden hour (dawn or dusk) for warm, soft light.

The animal's behavior, habitat, and patterns to anticipate and prepare for the perfect shot.
A telephoto lens (at least 200mm) and a camera with good autofocus and burst mode capabilities can help you capture sharp images of moving animals.
