Location
This photo was taken at Melbourne Zoo it was the first photo I ever shot with my very first camera.Time
This is one of my all time favourite photo I waited patiently so get the reflection just right. It was overcast and had just finished raining, it was worth the wait.Lighting
I didn't want any glare just a light reflection on the water, so as not to take the focus off what I was aiming for in my shot.Equipment
This was shot with my very first camera a Canon EOS 1000D 10.1 megapixel digital single lens reflex camera, with a 55mm lens.Inspiration
I love animals they inspire me greatly they are fascinating you get to see so much more detail that the naked eye doesn't see, I appreciate them so much seeing them through a lens.Editing
No post processing was done I got lucky no editing whatsoever was done to this photo as the lighting was perfect.In my camera bag
In my camera bag I always carry a tripod, lens cleaning kit, wate protection case and now I carry several filters and lenses also.Feedback
Even on an overcsst day you will still get amazing shots without the need for processing, most of all being patient to capture that moment.
