Location
I took the photo on my family's land.Time
I had just left my family , walking back to my home by their fields. It was early evening.Lighting
Shooting wide open often results into softness in the image. That being said, it doesn't mean you should discard the results as it may turn out to be quite exquisite.Equipment
I captured the instant with my trusty Fujifilm X-T3 paired with its 50-140mm F2.8 lens.Inspiration
I knew there were a few foxes on the property, and I had been trying to make a few good shots of them, but without any success of getting close enough. Then, this happened.Editing
I had to turn up the shadows a little bit.In my camera bag
When I'm out, I tend to travel with a ton of gear. My bag is incredibly heavy, but when packed properly, it is manageable. My baggage is divided into 4 compartments, accessible from both sides and from the top. In the top compartment, you'll usually find a prime Fujinon XF 23mm f/1.4 R and cleaning products for both my lens and camera. The middle section is where I keep my Fujinon XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR. In the lower section is my DJI remote for the drone and finally, my Mavic Air 2S is in the bottom of the bag.Feedback
Moments, instants like these are rare. Knowing what I was looking to capture, I was always carrying my camera every time I went for a walk on a specific path of the land. Photography is all about being there at the right time, therefor I tried to augment the opportunities for this to happen.
