Animal Pictures: 15 May 2011
Each week, people continue to discover amazing animal pictures.
The courageous shark expert, Michael Rutzen, 40, has captured amazing scenes of a great white shark breaching in the oceans when it is hunting a smaller seal in False Bay, South Africa on Monday (May 9). The 40-year-old expert was brave enough to spot close-up pictures of sharks leaping up to 13 feet out of the water. In the stunning hunting, no seals are hunted or hurt. For a long time, Seal Island in False Bay, 30km south of Cape Town is considered as the best place to watch this huge animal. This is also the place where scientists acknowledge that great white shark behaves differently, including the highly unusual behavior of breaching than any other sites else in the world.

Wildlife photography is considered as the most challenging of all forms of photography. It requires good technical skills, ability to expose correctly, and good field craft skills. It is sometimes difficult to approach to animals from marine animals, based animals to birds and to predict their following moves. Such form of photography requires specialist equipment like macro lenses and long focal length lenses.
However, taking animal pictures in this field is extremely rewarding. Animal photos help remember various special moments through daily lives. Such animals are natural models, and their emotions are evidently shown in pictures. Pictures of animals such as clouded leopard, orangutan, tiger, polar bear are taken from all corners of the globe. Let's take a look the gallery of cute animals.

Disneyworld is the perfect place for 7-year-olds and the 7-year-old in me. We had a great time there and I can't wait to get back again. Tina took this shot for us one afternoon in the Animal Kingdom.
This picture reminds me of how nice it is to be a hero to someone. It's kind of one of those things that I've always wanted to be. I'm afraid some day I will lose this "hero" status. I don't want to think about that right now!

Posing photos about animals, especially tiny ones is a difficult job for all photographers because they will spend much time patiently waiting for good chances and taking pictures.
