As I mentioned yesterday, photographing lynx in their natural habitat presents challenges. Inevitably, tree branches and other vegetation hinder efforts to get an unobstructed photo but when you do find a narrow window, you can use the surrounding out of focus elements to frame your subject. With an aperture of f/7.1, the depth of field was sufficient to maintain sharp detail from the lynx’s nose to the tips of its ears while the foreground and background are soft and don’t distract from the subject. This might be my favorite image from the series.
Have a great day out there and thank you for following my journey.
