Behind The Lens

Location

These was taken in 2008 while on safari in Tanzania.

Time

The shutter was press in the evening just before sunset.

Lighting

At the time I didn't notice but the backlighting made this image interesting.

Equipment

A Nikon F6 camera and Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 lense was used. Using the ground on my stomach to get low made the reflections possible.

Inspiration

Believe it or not, I was in the right place at the right time while walking back to camp. I just happened to look up after tiring my boot laces.

Editing

Just a little cropping, everything else fell into place with this image.

In my camera bag

A telephoto and wide angle lens.

Feedback

Be prepared to capture the moment when it present itself.
