I was looking through some old photos today. Amateurs are able to get photos of things today that were not possible thirty years ago. Professional wildlife photographers combine two things. They have technical skills and are able to spend months chasing the 'perfect shot'. I watched a doco about birds of paradise. A guy [ with help ] built a hide high in the jungle canopy to get photos. Not something the average tourist with a camera could do. Anyway with so many people taking so many photographs it is possible to get a rare capture.
Have you captured something rare?
My example is a Kookaburra with a young Red Bellied Black snake. I have another of a Kookaburra with a rodent. I have seen a Kookaburra with a rodent twice, but only once have I seen a Kookaburra with a snake.
