I have been trying to not just get the animals in the pics but the background also. But they don't always make it easy. The cameras keep getting better as they compete with each other and that really helps. Most of the really great pictures you see on Natgeo and other formats are made using hacked high end movie and still cameras plus additional sophisticated timed lighting. Some of the 35mm digital cameras appear to be pretty easy to hack and I purchased one for that purpose but it is lost in the bowels of the USPS. Go figure.
