Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my back garden whilst I was on leave and supposed to have been decorating ????????

Time

This was taken in the morning from memory

Lighting

Natural light overcast but fairly bright

Equipment

This was taken on my old Nikon D50 with the tamron 70-300 on my manfrotto tripod which was probably worth more than the camera and lense ????????????

Inspiration

I was looking out of the window of the room I was decorating and saw the birds taking Nesting material into the hedge they stopped on this small tree before going in every time, this was the second day I sat ou there as I didn't get the shot on the first day and to my delight they were at it again

Editing

Bit of mild sharpening and noise reduction and probably a bit of colour adjustment and a slight crop

In my camera bag

Nowadays I have my d5300 which nearly always has my sigma 150-600 contemporary fitted to it

Feedback

Just head out and shoot, don't get disheartened if you don't get the shot you want just keep going, also, be patient and let nature come to you.
