I’ve been looking at a lot of photographs and find I’m really drawn to photojournalism. I love when a photographer tells a story through their images, capturing a moment in time or the essence of a person or place. I’d like to work on developing my own style of images.
On the road to improvement, I’ll be dedicating the next few weeks to photographing on a theme. This week, my offering is from a recent visit to the Sacramento Zoo. I had a small child with me, so I didn’t have as much time as I’d have liked to stay in one place and capture multiple images. However, it’s all part of the process and I rather enjoyed myself.
Thank you for your support and have a wonderful week.










Great photos!

+ 1 on the great photos – the flamingo with the ID bracelets (that look a little like manacles) particularly.

Fun subjects to photograph. The first lion image is my favorite for the reflections and bold gaze.

Great photos Bridgette. I love your approach. I’m a great fan of photojournalism too and I also love old b/w press photography. Lynn

Thank you! Yes! Old b/w press photography is really fascinating. I was a journalist years ago and Iβve always been drawn to the different ways of capturing a moment in time. Iβm hoping for the chance to explore this idea more.

Thank you!! Iβm so glad you loved them as much as I do. I was enchanted by the eyes of the lion-so more human than I ever noticed before. Itβs always the eyes which I attract me and remind me how close we are.
