Behind The Lens

Location

I took this picture on my back deck. My hummingbird feeding is hanging on the corner of my house. They seem to like it there.

Time

I took this picture in the afternoon. The sun is in the west and is shining on the hummingbird feeder perfectly.

Lighting

We live in the woods, so you have to watch and see when the sun is shining on the hummingbird feeder.

Equipment

I only used my camera, a Nikon D7200 with a Nikon 70-300 mm lens.

Inspiration

I love watching the birds. On one end of the deck, I have a homemade wooden bird feeder that my husband made and the other end we have the hummingbird feeder.

Editing

I processed this image in photoshop raw. I didn't do that much to it.

In my camera bag

I have a tripod, flash, and Nikon 60 mm lens.

Feedback

My advice is just to be patient. Hummingbirds are beautiful but fast.
