If you asked me what my least favorite sort of light is for wildlife photography, it would be midday sun. When the sun is high in the sky, all sorts of problems occur. You get harsh shadows on the animals, harsh light in the background (translating to distracting bokeh), reduced sharpness due to heat distortion, unwanted highlights… and excellent motivation for staying indoors and buying camera gear instead! But it’s still possible to get decent photos with midday sun, and in this article, I’ll tell you how.
