I love nature photography and Wildlife. Watching this beautiful bird cleaning and drying it's feathers a noticed that it looked like a beautiful piece of art.Editing
I only cropped the photo otherwise no post-processing.In my camera bag
Nikon D7100 now that I upgraded my camera from the Nikon D3000. 55-300mm lens, 18-55mm lens, and filters.Feedback
When photographing wildlife don't be in a hurry; spend time watching the animal/bird and take photos at various times and if possible move slowly around so that you get shots from different angles and lighting. Don't use a flash because it can injury the animals eyes. Also, I think animals should be photographed in a natural lighting.
