Location
At a sanctuary rescue centre near me in the new forest in Hampshire UKTime
around midday within a cool shed converted for this occasion into a studioLighting
Yes we used two heads set at 45 degrees and opposite each other this manages to bring out the detail just rightEquipment
two flash heads with softboxes, a Canon 70D (since replaced as it has an inbuilt auto focus issue) a canon L series zoom 100-400mm f4 and a monopod tripod as this lens is heavyInspiration
every night we hear Owl around us but it is almost impossible to catch a glimpse of them let alone photograph them so this was an ideal opportunity. they are such magical Animals with their stunning big eyes and tremendous powerful wingsEditing
only from RAW into jpg with a touch on the detailIn my camera bag
Canon 6D as the gps and Wi-Fi are not only nice to have but essential to get some of my shots. Canon L series lenses 100-400. 17-40, 100mm Macro and 24-105 zoomFeedback
Yes certainly this is a good way to understanding studio lighting and capturing fantastic animals like this look around at it is surprising what is normally right under your nose .. Great inexpensive photo days. be inspired by what other people have taken and learn to live with the software that now rules our world be creative ..........
