Sunrises in the Kalahari Desert can be pretty colorful because it is so flat and the sun sits right on the horizon. I found myself running around each day trying to find anything to photograph during both sunrises and sunsets. On this occasion, a black-backed jackal was kind enough to stop by and pose for a portrait as the first bit of light of the day was filtering across the landscape. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/400th of a second.
So like, how do you find these jackals to pose for you? Do you work with a modeling agency? Or like, do you just post on Craigslist? Promising models jobs to jackals on Kalahari Craigslist seems kinda sketchy, but I don’t really know, maybe it’s totally legit.
