Photographer Michael Nichols a few years puzzled over how to do that ordinary everyday scenes looked like works of art. In 1993, Nichols first put the camera on a leopard. For months of work, he got only one good shot, which could be published. Digital photography and years of experience helped Michael improve his skills.

Over time, in many ways due to the amazing perseverance, Nichols managed to film the life of tigers, elephants, warthogs and other animals. First, Nichols outlines the "victim", then sets the camera in the place where the animal is a frequent visitor, for example, at a watering hole (here animals do not need to be lured specially). And finally, he carefully thinks over the composition, as if he is going to be present at the shooting personally. And then the photomodels begin to work. Nicholls has a wonderful instinct - it helps the photographer to penetrate into the mysteries of the mysterious behavior of wild animals and learn their habits.
