Representing a human being, in itself, is already a complicated job, not necessarily because of the play of light, the use of different photographic lenses or even technological elements, but, in many cases, because of the impatience and restlessness of the chosen model. .
And when you change this function for wild animals, who cares much more about following their natural habits than paying attention to a human who wants to record this moment for posterity?
- Certainly.
- The level of difficulty increases considerably.
- Hence the even more noteworthy value of animal photos where the click seems to have been taken in a requested way.
- Requested by the photographer and cared for by the animal.
With this, nothing is more successful than an important photography and press agency such as Reuters, each year, selecting among its collaborators to discover the best photographs taken with wild animals.
Generally, the election of elected officials in this and other categories in which Reuters and other photo and news agencies publish galleries takes place at the end of the year. And while the 2015 version of the best animal images on the planet is not revealed, check out some of the ones chosen in 2014:
