Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on a safari in amboseli national park at dusk

Time

this photo was taken on a cloudy day during late afternoon.

Lighting

This image gives an illusion of a 4 winged bird. The flock of crested came gathered during their mate selection process. As was looking through view finder I was hoping they fly one over another to give an illusion of 4 windged bird.

Equipment

This was shot using nikon d 500 my favourite on a tampon 150 600 g2 lense

Inspiration

Crested cranes are endangered birds and was fortunate to watch their mating ritual. These majestic birds are one of my favourite birds.

Editing

As it was cloudy day light was dull had and bit enhance the shawdos and improve overall lighting in post processing

In my camera bag

D 850 and 300 pf4 and d500 with 200 500 f 5.6

Feedback

Be patient and be ready for right moment to capture it.
