Zebra Pictures - Pg 2

The zebra pictures on this page are of individual animals or small groups - unfortunately no large herds.

Although zebra are distributed widely throughout southern Africa, it is difficult to get photos of huge herds, as is possible in East Africa where migrating populations on the Serengeti plains number in the tens of thousands.

So if you're planning an African vacation and want to see the famed zebra and wildebeest migrations, then Kenya's Masai Mara or Tanzania's Serengeti National Park must be your preferred safari destinations.

Zebra Reflections
Pictures of zebra taken near water are often interesting - the black and white stripes reflect well, providing visually appealing results.

So if you find a group of zebra near a water-hole, it's worth waiting a while. Capturing five or six of them drinking together, their bowed heads reflecting on the water, will make a memorable picture.

Camera Equipment Suggestions:
In popular nature reserves zebra become habituated to people and vehicles, so will often come close. A telephoto zoom lens in the 70-210mm or 70-300mm range will be fine in most cases, giving options of group shots to portraits.

If you're using a digital SLR like a Canon 350D or Nikon D70s with a built-in "crop factor" you may find even at 70mm focal length you can't get enough of your subject in the frame, so will need to switch to a standard zoom in the 35-70mm range.

Digital cameras with fixed 10x or 12x zooms - like the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30, Canon Powershot S3 IS or Sony DSC-H2 - are ideal as you've got options from wide angle right through to long telephoto and also offer image-stabilized lenses.

In most cases aim to use a combination of wide aperture (F2.8 to F5.6) with a fast shutter speed as this will offset camera shake and help throw the background out of focus.
