Alaska Wild Life Conservation Center

Unread post by sury »

These fauna are from Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. The center is a 200 acre preserve that provides shelter to
orphaned wildlife in a natural setting. The enclosures are very large providing some roaming area for these "lost" animals.

Great collection of mega fauna images Sury, it’s good too see that orphaned ones have some refuge and protection, the Bison and Bears are cool, but I think I like the ‘handsome’ Moose the best. :mrgreen:

Sury, congratulations! :D

I hope I don't offend you when I reveal that the last uploads of yours are the best photos I saw of your shoots to date. : )
You should shoot more wild life and not constrain yourself to your garden's flower shots.

Thanks for sharing,

Yildiz

Yildiz,
With the comments like this, please offend me more. :lol: Kidding aside, I am grateful to all of you
who care enough to take time point the positives and negatives. What more one can ask? I always
value the feedback, whether the message is positive or about improving my skills and techniques.
I certainly tried to follow your previous advise when you suggested I should be able to take better shots
given the tools that I have, by being more selective and "tweaking" the photos a tad to bring out the image
I had in mind. These days I shoot a little bit less random and more with some idea of composition, thanks
to all the posts, comments and feedback on the forum.

With warm regards,
Sury

I should have quit while ahead but no..... :lol:
