Wildlife

Close-Up Spiders

Spiders might be small, but at macro scale, they reveal an incredible world of detail. This Mission is all about getting close and bringing out the sharpness, texture, and intricate details that are easy to miss with the naked eye. From the fine hairs on a spider’s body to the delicate structure of its legs and the incredible patterns across its eyes and abdomen, let’s see how much detail you can uncover.

Shot from Afar

🦌 How have you captured wildlife from a distance? This Mission is all about lens reach: how far can you push your lens to get those shots of the animals you can't get near; the shy, the wary, the impossibly distant.

Feet on the Ground

🐘 From a stomping elephant to the gentlest spider, how will you showcase wildlife in contact with the ground? This is a great opportunity to get creative with your lens choice to exaggerate scale or freeze the action!

Taking Flight

🦅 How can you showcase that feeling of flight? Capturing wildlife in flight is one of the hardest things to nail, but is also what makes it so worth chasing! This Mission is all about trying to capture that feeling of taking flight; the moment of lift off, the stretch of a wingspan , the split second an insect jumps.

Wild Eyes

It's time for some wild eye contact! 👁️ This wildlife Mission is about capturing that intense moment of eye contact with an animal. What lens decisions did you make to shoot it? Whether it's a bird of prey staring you down, a fox glancing back, or a deer frozen mid-step, show us the power of a direct gaze from the natural world.

Wildlife Bokeh

Blur the world away! ✨ Inspired by the SIGMA 50mm 1.2 DG Art, this Mission is all about using shallow depth of field to isolate your wildlife subjects with creamy, dreamy background blur that makes them pop off the screen.

Dark & Moody Wildlife

Embrace the mood! 🌑 This Wildlife Mission is all about capturing those dramatic, moody tones. Show us your darkest, most atmospheric wildlife shots. Think silhouettes against stormy skies, animals emerging from deep forest shadows, or creatures lit by single shafts of light breaking through darkness.
