- Get to a good setting
- the animals are likely not going to pose for you so you always want to be ready
- find the view point you like (side, top, back, below)
- you may need to even lay on the ground to get the right shot
- once you find your view point just keep snapping and you will end up with something awesome!
- above are some pics I ended up with after I just took a bunch and deleted the rest. Forrest (the sheep) was in mid yawn.

- You want to darken or brighten the photo, this will make it pop.
- contrasting will help give the color warmth
- temperature will give the photo some feeling
- go through your filters and choose which one (or none) you like
- and lastly crop what you like out pf the photo
- above is before and after pictures of a picture I snapped while shooting my animals. (you do not have to shoot animals, you can shoot something as simple as I did)
