Behind The Lens

Location

On my last Trip to Ireland at the Coast of Donegal.

Time

It was Highnoon and the worst Light for Shooting. But the Sheep didn't care ;-)

Lighting

The Light was very harsh but fortunately this gave the Scene a brilliant Clarity.

Equipment

Nikon D810 and the Nikkor 18-300 mm, 3.5-6.3.

Inspiration

I was hiking and saw this wonderful Animal on the Edge of a Cliff. I sneaked up but the Sheep was very whatchful and began to run. I didn't want to give up this Photo Motiv and tooked the Picture handheld while trying not to stumble, chasing, laughing and running.

Editing

As always not much. Lens Correction, D&B and Saturation.

In my camera bag

It depends on what i want to shoot. But always my two Nikon D810, the Holy Trinity, the Fisheye 10,5, 2.8, a Manfrotto Carbon Fibre Tripod, Shutter Releases, Haida Filters and Stuff for Cleaning.

Feedback

I can't give some advice and never assume to give tips because i'm only a Shutterbug. But if i have to: Go out and try everything you can imagine and dream of. Enjoy the Moment of Shooting, be proud of what you've photographed and good Pictures are not a matter of high-quality Equipment.
