that's the best I could do under that circumstances.
I presume here you are referring to the resulting photograph. If so, you could make it a bit clearer. For example:
This is the best photograph I could take under the circumstances. now I realize why nature's professional photographers have to go to extremes to get good pictures from wild animals. This one needs a bit more adjustment. For starters "nature's professional photographers" is not a logical comment. You've used "nature's" as a possessive, however nature itself cannot take photographs, nor does it possess photographers.
More readable would be:
I now realise why professional photographers who specialize in nature photographs have to go to extremes to capture good pictures of wild animals. regards
please, is this text ok?
thanks. | It needs a little adjustment, although the idea is clear enough.
Hope this helped. |
