Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Sofia zoo

Time

It was in the afternoon.

Lighting

Although it was afternoon it was taken from the inside under the roof not from the outside of the cage

Equipment

Camera I used Sony alpha 100, Lens 0.38/1.35ft macro no tripod and no flash

Inspiration

I like a lot animals specially wild ones ,where we don't have such animals in Malta .I always loved the king of beast .

Editing

The only thing I do in my photos is crop and some contrast setting

In my camera bag

The equipment I have is the camera ,macro lens recently bought and 28-105mm,Lens 0.38/1.35ft some cleaning pads and a tripod

Feedback

In my opinion I got this photo because I waited for the keeper after asking him the time of feeding and this was the result. So be patient when you are in such situations .
