A

Animals are a favorite subject of many photographers. Cats, dogs, and other pets top the list, followed by zoo animals. However, because it’s hard to get them to sit st ill and “perform on command,” some professional photographers refuse to photograph pets.

One way to get a nice picture of a cat or a dog is to hold some delicious food above the camera. The animal’s longing look toward the food will be captured (捕捉) by the camera, but the food won’t appear in the picture because it’s out of the camera’s range. When you show the picture to your friends afterwards, they’ll be impressed by your pet’s loving expression.

If you are using fast film, you can take some good，quick shots of a pet by simply snapping (抓拍) a picture right after calling its name. You’ll get a different expression from your pet using this technique. Depending on your pet’s mood，the picture will capture an interested, curious expression or possibly a look of annoyance, especially if you’ve awakened it from a nap.

Taking pictures of zoo animals requires a little more patience. After all, you can’t wake up a lion! You may have to wait for a while until the animal does something interesting or moves into a position for you to get a good shot. When photographing zoo animals, don’t get too close to the cages, and never tap on the glass or throw things between the bars of a cage; Concentrate on shooting some good pictures, and always respect the animals you are photographing.
