otter bubble trails
After 9 attempts to photograph a pair of delightfully playful otters at Woodland Park Zoo I realised it was impossible, because
- my finger is slug-slow compared to an otter
- otter direction is twisty-unpredictable
- my 4yr old camera shutter speed is ‘leisurely’
Some of the unintended compositions have unique charms:
I turned-off my camera flash when photographing animals at the Zoo. Many people didn’t. There were no signs suggesting camera flashes should be turned off for the comfort of the animals.
