getting the right spot by koalagardens

getting the right spot

It is hard to describe how difficult it can be to get that identifying, or even reasonable photo sometimes. It is not like each tree just stands alone on a flat mowed field. The property is on the side of a hill, and the native grasses are knee-waist tall, trees are everywhere, and I have paths I ride the quad bike along.
These photos are in order of shooting. When I first came along and saw Hugo I took the first photo and then the path went downhill with the tree on my left. As I went down he disappeared under the leaf cover. I then had to ride down quite a way, and follow a couple of branches right back up and come along from a path above and to the right of the tree and got the second photo. Now I knew it was Hugo by his general shape, but had to continue along until I finally found one spot where I could look down and through a gap in the leaves to find his face and nose.
All in a days koala spotting. I decided they made a nice triptych.
You have a hard job, but very rewarding I imagine. Lovely captures!

I think I’d have a permanent neck ache taking these shots. You do so well to capture them in so many interesting poses.

Makes an excellent triptych. Looks like Hugo is quite happy to have you do the running while he just slumbers in his spot.

What a great triptych this made - hadn't really thought of the difficulties of catching these koala in a photographable (is that a work?) spot. Your shots are always incredible catching them.

It is hard to imagine because you make the images so clear. I love the last photo because his portrait is framed by the branches.
