In Frame: A Cute Baby Deer and a Super Cute Baby Wolf with Liba Radova. Wildlife photographer, Liba, was in the middle of a photoshoot when A Baby Deer and a Baby Wolf decided to stop by and say "hello." Both were curious about her camera, and often peeped into it while she was working in the field. After peeking into her camera, they decided to pose for the camera that was capturing the moment. #wildlife Follow me (Harshal) for exciting #ESG and #climatechange trivia.

🦭 It's International Day of the Seal 🦭 and today we are raising an important issue on how images of Seals are captured and shared on line. 📸 Just recently, we learnt that in photos where seals are looking at the camera, it usually means that the seal has been disturbed by the photographer, possibly putting them at risk. Our good friends at the Cornwall Seal Group Research Trust and Sue Sayer MBE are on a mission to raise awareness about how we can capture seal photography and share it online more responsibly. And they flagged this with us in the New Year, when we shared a seemingly "cute" photo of a seal looking straight at the camera. After they raised this with us, it was clear that the look on the seal's face not cute, and there was a sense of alarm in the creature. Their recommendation is that we only share photos of seals doing natural stuff, looking away from the camera and doing their thing! Did you know that grey seals are one of the rarest species in the world, and over a third of the World's population live here in the UK? This means we have a responsibility to protect these beautiful creatures in the wild. We love seals, and want to encourage everyone to help protect these wonderful mammals in their natural habitat. If you would like to learn more about responsible seal photography and the ways you can help, they have loads of helpful resources on their website: https://lnkd.in/e7QnH5Nd #InternationalDayOfTheSeal #GreySeals #UKSeals #SealConservation

As we continue to marvel at the beauty of our Pembrokeshire coast, including its stunning wildlife, let’s not forget the importance of responsible photography. Remember: A seal’s welfare is worth more than a thousand pictures! 📷 ↔️ 🦭 Here are some guidelines to follow for responsible photography: 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗮 𝗧𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗽𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼 𝗟𝗲𝗻𝘀: To avoid getting too close to the seals, use a telephoto lens that allows you to capture beautiful shots from a distance. 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝗿: If a seal looks directly at your camera, it might be an indication of disturbance. Always be mindful and adjust your distance accordingly. 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝘆: When sharing your photos, remind your audience of the importance of keeping a safe distance from seals, and encourage them to follow the code of conduct too. 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀: Use your platform to educate others about the Pembrokeshire Marine Code and the best practices for enjoying wildlife photography without causing any disturbance. 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀: If you notice individuals not adhering to the guidelines, gently remind them of the code or report to the appropriate authorities. We all have a role to play in protecting our marine life. Share your seal photos responsibly and encourage others to do the same! Feel free to use the hashtags: #ResponsibleSealPhotography #ProtectPembrokeshireSeals to spread awareness!

Tips for Wildlife Photography Shoot in RAW: This allows for greater flexibility when editing the images, especially in low-light situations. Focus on Eyes: Sharp focus on the animal's eyes often brings life to the photograph, making it more engaging.   Use Fast Shutter Speeds: Fast shutter speeds (1/1000s or higher) are crucial to freeze motion, especially for birds in flight or animals on the move.   Compose Thoughtfully: Using the rule of thirds and including elements of the animal’s habitat can create compelling and storytelling images. Wildlife photography can be a deeply rewarding pursuit, offering both the thrill of the chase and the satisfaction of capturing nature's beauty.
