Composition Tip for Better Photos
Next time you’re out shooting, try changing your angle of view and see how it totally changes your images. In this photography quick-tip, I run through how I capture these rainbow lorikeets and how I made the images so much stronger by changing my perspective.
How to get better wildlife images:
- Look for distracting elements
- Change your perspective – for a stronger image
- Watch that eye – make sure it’s sharp!

Hi Brent
Great shots and 100% agree – the shot where you bent your knees is so much better – the lorikeet stands out so much more with the green background when compared to the first shot which has too much highlights. Cheers Gary
