Time

Early morning just after sunrise

Lighting

Early morning sunlight was good enough to capture seen.

Equipment

Was shot with Nikon D3s camera, Nikon 400, 2.8 lens, on a monopod.

Inspiration

We have been always inspired by the desert and the living in the desert, we have spend couple of days chasing Oryx and Deers.

Editing

The image was post-processes, by adding contrast, some saturation ad sharpening, and cropping.

In my camera bag

Nikon camera and a 50mm lens are always in my bag, and when we plan a shoot we take other required gear for the shoot.

Feedback

Be patient and have the motivation to go the extra mile
