Location
The photo was taken during a safari trip in Tanzania, this specific picture was taken in Ngorongoro CraterTime
This was at the end of a very long day we were on our way out of the Ngorongoro Crater around five after none it was raining and then we saw a cub in the bush we stop and took some pictures then we understood that moor cubs are hiding, we waited and one by one the appeared, finally I was able to capture all five looking at me :)Lighting
The lighting was hard, the rain was pouring the sun was starting to go down on the wall of the crater, I couldn't use the been bag or tripod because of the rain (i toke the shots from inside the jeep) I was force to use high isoEquipment
I used my canon 70d and Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM (no tripod/been bag)Inspiration
I was looking for the shot of the day, it was a good day with many good pictures but not the "one" we all are looking for It was the end of the day, it was late, we all were tired but we didn't gave up and kept on looking for our shot, lucky for us we decided to stop when we saw the first cub and we were lucky to decide to stay and look for the rest of the cubs, we took ~ 50 pictures and kept on waiting for the best one, finally when I was able to catch all five looking at me I new we did it !Editing
The picture didn't need a loot of processing, I used the lightroom to balance coolers and lightingIn my camera bag
The equipment in my bag depends on the circumstance, in a safari trip I use the canon 70D and a Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM lance, I carry a 18-35mm f1.8 sigma and a 50-150mmf2.8 sigmaFeedback
If you decide to go on a safari trip be sure to chose a good company and an excellent guide, take a good lens at least 400mm be patient and look for your shot. understanding animal behavior will help you gain the best picture.
