Dan Skuta Former 49ers Linebacker - Which Type of Photographer Are You?

One way that Dan Skuta – a former San Francisco 49ers linebacker – likes to pass the time is through photography. 

A photography enthusiast for a number of years, Skuta appreciates the work, timing and often sheer luck that often go into obtaining the perfect shot – as well as the opportunity to enjoy and share one’s work of art when all is said and done.

As Dan Skuta – also a former Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker – knows, photographers more often than not are not simply generalists, but prefer or gravitate toward a specific niche of photography. Some of the more popular or well-known photography specialties out there include:

• Landscape photography, which is centered more on taking pictures of large scenes or tableaus of nature.

• Wildlife photography, where anything from wild frogs and prairie-bound lions to praying mantises and antelope herds become the center of each new image.

• Event photography, which is centered on large-scale happenings ranging from weddings and birthday parties to retirement ceremonies and corporate gatherings
