Behind The Lens

Location

The shot was taken on a fine evening in my garden

Time

Was taken on a fine spring evening whilst my nutty dog was playing with my other half and her bubbles

Lighting

Their was no lighting added just natural lighting of a bright evening

Equipment

I used my trusty Canon 40d cannot remember the lens, but properly my Tamron 70-300. setting for shot f7.1, 1/800 sec , ISO400, at 63mm in AV mode Auto focus servo1 centre weighted.

Inspiration

Watching Otis my nutty dog chasing bubbles made me reach for my camera and try and capture him having fun

Editing

Slight cropping apart from that straight out of camera

In my camera bag

Either my 40d or 7Dmkii with a canon nifty 50 lens, sigma DC 18-250 lens which I use as my favourite walk about lens. Other bits and pieces like spare batteries (just in case) and I always keep a battery grip attached to my cameras. cleaning equipment as needed and a couple of ND filters and brackets.

Feedback

If shooting a fast moving subject such as a dog at play try and get a fast shutter speed and use auto or servo focus and practise tracking. It also helps to use burst shooting (cheating some say) but if you got it use it
