Behind the Scenes with Jonathan and Angela Scott
We love the work of Vincent Munier for its artistry. Vincent immerses himself completely in the outdoors. He loves snow and ice and creates sublime images that are always different, embodying artistic flair with a minimalistic approach. Angela loves black and white photography and our two books Sacred Nature: Life’s Eternal Dance (HPH, 2016) and Sacred Nature 2: Reconnecting People to Our Planet (HPH, 2021) showcase some of her stunning black and white images.
Angela loves her Canon EF600mm f/4L IS II USM telephoto. All wildlife photographers use either a 500mm or 600mm telephoto as their prime lens, it’s the workhorse of our industry. We also add a x1.4 Extender Series III at times that multiplies the length of the lens by that factor –so with the 600mm it transforms it to 840mm. I love the Canon EF200-400mm f/4 IS USM with built in 1.4 Extender for its versatility. It allows you to change your composition easily without having to pick up another lens. For travel photography and when you want to take the lightest equipment then the Canon EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 IS II USM is a brilliant choice that focuses down to one meter. Other favourite lenses are the EF24-105mm f/4, IS II USM and EF16-35mm f/2.8 and EF8-15mm Fish Eye.
Too many to list. It is a certain kind of “death” when you see the shot and fail to translate it into an image. That is why planning is so important, so that when the moment happens you are not all fingers and thumbs. Wildlife and sports photography are very demanding and very unforgiving. You often have one chance and must feel as if your camera is part of you –an extension of your hand and your eye.
Angela was born in Africa and lived in Dar es Salaam in Tanzania from the age of 4. The Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park were where the family went on safari. She lived and breathed Africa. I travelled overland from the UK through the length and breadth of Africa in 1974 –4 months on the road covering 6,000 miles. East Africa –particularly the Maasai Mara and Serengeti –were the savanna Africa that I had seen on TV as a child and fallen in love with. There is a magic to Africa. It is the birthplace of mankind –it feels like home. There is nowhere better to photograph wildlife. Big cats have been our lifelong obsession. Is there anything more beautiful or beguiling –the mix of beauty and the predator?
Photography is all about planning. That is the best way to step up. You have to be disciplined, something Angela is very good at. There is no excuse for being unprepared. The internet is full of detailed advice on destinations and the changing seasons,the best places to see particular species.
