Brad Wilson is an amazing animal photographer. I wouldn't call him a typical wildlife photographer because all his animals are "trained" animals.
As he explains in the video the extent of the training is for them not to jump off the set and attack you.
Good natured ribbing started as soon as the teams were formed in Queenscliff. Team leaders Kris, Phil, Cathy and Tom got their teams in huddles and plans of attack were made.
Each team had to photograph five set subjects within two hours seagull/s, landscape/seascape, macro, architecture and a group self portrait.
