    Wildlife photography has a difficulty that most other genres lack: It’s hard to get close to your subject.

    By the time this Photography News has been published, I will be wrapping up a lecture here in Prague on photographing Sri Lanka. If you missed it, not to worry – many of the photos and stories will find their way into the pages of Photography Life in the future. Why do I mention this? Sometimes a looming deadline forces us to dive into our archives. Just yesterday, I found myself culling a number of shots that had been gathering digital dust since I took them.
