You need to visit places where you know the wildlife can be accessed and approached easily.

1. Saxen Van Coller­ How To Get The
Best Wildlife Photographs In Winters?
Winter is no doubt the best time
to get the glimpse of rare
animals. It is probably the
season where the lighting is
soft and smooth with
variations. Credits go to the
light in the winter season,
which has a special clarity and
warmth. Winter brings snow,
frost, mist, and elements that
add to the atmosphere and
elevate the images that look
beyond normal. This is the
time when birds have the
brightest coat and mammals
have thick winter coats and
these altogether work wonders
that create some fantastic

3. Below are some points that you need to consider
when photographing the wild in winters:

To make the most of your time, make sure you check
the weather a day before. If there is clear sky at night
means the morning will have frost and stunning light.

If you wish to take photographs of foxes, squirrels, or
even badgers, then you can attract them by putting
some food in the garden. Try using natural foods like
berries as they attract more animals.

Use a telephoto lens to take a fantastic close up
portraits or you can simply focus on the untamed in its
wintry habitat using a simple lens for regular playful
photographs.

4. 
Wait for sunrise in winters is worth the chills. As the sun rises, the
light falling from the back creates a silhouette in the sky making
it look beautiful and perfect to capture the wild.

Arrive early, as sunrise and sunset are the best time. It is also the
time when you see intense colors when the sun is just below the
horizon and pictures taken from a distance come perfectly. These
silhouettes fall as the perfect backdrop.

Get the right exposure by looking at the meter by using spot
metering. This will help you know where the light is perfect, so
that you can take that perfect shot.

Use the sun to get that dramatic backlit shot for those beautiful
landscape photographs. If you have time, then pre­visualizing
your competition will help capture more interesting shots. The
warm orange glow gives a perfect rim around the lighting and
around the subject that is just perfect.

5. Shooting in the snow and
winters can produce
exciting results. The
images are spectacular
as they look so natural
and pristine owing to the
variations in the light.
You need to take time
out and make the most
of winter months... Just
one thing carry a plastic
bag and cover to keep
your equipment dry
incase it starts to snow.
