Behind The Lens
Location
This young horned owl was living in a dead tree in the woods of my backyard in northern Georgia.Time
This picture was taken just before sunset. The sun had just gone from being completely overhead and had started to set. One of my favorite times of day to take pictures.Lighting
The time of the day really had everything to do with the lighting. I didn't use a flash for this photo, it's all just natural light.Equipment
This was taken with a Nikon D5100 camera and I was using a Nikon 55-200mm lens. No tripod and no flash.Inspiration
I was just wandering around and noticed this little guy poking his head out. When he saw me he began to come out of his hiding place a little more. So I actually got behind the tree beside his tree and poked my camera around and he had actually come out and turned to watch me. And this picture captured that precise moment.Editing
With my nature shots I like to keep it as natural as can be. This picture has no post editing.In my camera bag
I'm a Nikon girl. Growing up and watching my father use his Nikon cameras, it was the first camera I ever used. I have my D5100 Nikon camera and I keep a 18-55mm lens usually on my camera and a 55-200mm lens and a 50mm lens in my camera bag.Feedback
Think quick and in the moment.. Don't be scared to get dirty trying to get up close and personal. Most of all, just have fun!
