Now this is my idea of an environmental portrait. While some might think that photographing captive animals is a cop-out, as long as you are not representing the image as otherwise, no harm no foul. I love to shoot at the zoo. The opportunities to practice technique, work on composition, and experiment with different design ideas are endless. The crowned cranes are a particular favorite of mine. The pair always seems curious and intrigued by what is taking place around them, sort of like me!
