Behind The Lens
Location
On the farm with our dog Ace. I was fascinated with the great action photo of dogs running and leaping that were appearing on ViewBug. I though Ace and I could do it too!Time
2:00 pmLighting
Partly cloudy day. Wasn’t really a factor in the shotEquipment
Canon setup with 300 mm lensInspiration
Ace likes to play catch and I noticed he was a great leader. This day though he was jumping with unbridled enthusiasm! I would toss the ball high allowing for a good bounce, then settled in and shot at 1/2000 multi shot mode. It worked wellEditing
Minor edit to add a little more color to the ball and sharpen his teeth (no pun intended)In my camera bag
Canon 75 mm plus a 300mm zoom lens.Feedback
Take as many shots as you can with action photos. So many will not make the cut, but you only need one great one to make your day
