Running Wild

Uploaded: June 03, 2010

Description

Canon 70-200L USM lens, ISO 100, aperature at f/16, shutter speed was 1/45th of a second; wildebeast running in the Serengeti,Tanzania on 9/11/2008 at 4:22 pm

I was panning to show movement but at the same time I didn't want the picture of the animals to be too blurry. I also wanted the wildebeast that was jumping to be the one of main focus and the sharpest so I used a single focus point and took the picture as he started to jump in the air.
