Summary
| Description |
English: Wildlife Photographer Giles Laurent in a ghillie suit. Some wild animals are very difficult to approach without disturbing them, which sometimes leads some wildlife photographers to wear a ghillie suit when they go in search of them. By remaining undetected, wildlife photographers can observe animal behaviour that would otherwise not be observable if the animal had knowledge of human presence.
Tiếng Việt: Một nhiếp ảnh gia động vật hoang dã trong trang phục ngụy trang. Français : Le photographe animalier Giles Laurent vêtu d'une tenue ghillie. Certains animaux sauvages sont très difficiles à approcher sans les déranger, ce qui conduit parfois certains photographes animaliers à porter une tenue de camouflage lorsqu'ils partent à leur recherche. En restant indétectables, les photographes animaliers peuvent observer le comportement des animaux, ce qui serait impossible si ceux-ci avaient conscience de la présence humaine.
Українська: Фотограф дикої природи в маскувальному костюмі. До деяких диких тварин дуже важко підійти, не потурбувавши їх, що іноді змушує деяких фотографів дикої природи одягати маскувальний костюм, коли вони вирушають на їх пошуки. |
