That's what I wanted to hear ... shooting photos is better :)
I like a beautiful picture on the wall more than an antler.
Ohh yes I think so as well I ave never like antlers of anima heads on walls i think thats kind of sick
As sick as paying to be allowed to shoot an animal. I have had such discussions with friends, who are hunters, but when they hunt, they are in another world somehow.
The Last time I hunted I think was the week before I joined the UN, so close to 30 Years ago, but no rifles the friend i went hunting with used a crossbow, and i can say although we saw a few deer, we were terrible and knowing the way the wind was blowing or at being quiet enough to get close enough to any of them to get a shot so no Amina’s were injured but it was a fun experience
Wow, a crossbow, that's real hunting like they did hundreds of years ago :)
A wildlife photographer has to behave like a hunter, I mean a hunter with bow or crossbow, because he has to get closer to the animal than a hunter with a rifle. He also has to take care of the wind and has to be quiet ... and he does not injure any animals, although he gets his trophy ;)
And to me the best trophy a photo of the animal in its natural habitat and at its best
Some set up a hide and wait for hours on end just to get the perfect shot got to respect them for that
I agree - and one day I will try it myself, but these photographers are really incredible patient.
