LOOK CLOSER / JJ PHOTOGRAPHIC OBSERVATION

A way of seeing.

The animal stays within a wider frame of grass and foliage. The surrounding vegetation gives the photograph context beyond a close portrait.

Study the space around the tiger. What would a tighter crop retain, and what context would it lose?

These are JJ’s visual observations and learning prompts, not a first-person account by the source photographer.

The capture, with context.
