Behind The Lens

Location

It had just finished raining and I saw this owl sitting on a post. Had to get this shot.

Time

It was an overcast day, but as the rain finished the sun broke out and gave me stellar lighting.

Lighting

Just natural sunlight, with clouds after a rain. It gave a nice subtle light.

Equipment

Nikon D100 with a 79-200 lens.

Inspiration

I saw the owl sitting nicely and had my camera with me. I love raptors and owls!

Editing

Cropped in a bit and color correction

In my camera bag

Now a Nikon D7500 and D90. 28-70mm lens, 80mm lens, 70-200mm lens, 200-500mm lens, flash.

Feedback

Watch your surroundings. Birds and animals are all around, you just have to be slow and deliberately look. Try wildlife reserves and other natural areas.
