Location
I took this photo when I was visiting my parents in Apex, NC. My daughter was playing in the water feature they have in their yard, and this cardinal flew in a tree nearby. I had a camera and lens on me because I was taking pictures of my daughter. When I saw the bird land I just took a quick picture.Time

I love taking pictures of all kinds of things. When life presents you and beautiful picture and you got the equipment to photograph available you should take a chance and photograph it. Yeah, you may get disappointed from time to time, but you might also get a beautiful image. No guts no glory.Editing
I don't have photoshop or a desktop computer. The only editing software I have is the basic editing features on my samsung phone.In my camera bag

Pay attention to your surroundings . You don't have to travel far to find a beautiful picture. Beauty is everywhere. Have patience when photographing children or wildlife.
