Location
This photo was taken at my friends house here in spain, she lives on the 5th floor of a block of apartments, we used to watch the baby kestrels on the roof opposite,The mother and father used to feed there young there every day,This day it was just the adults male and female, i think it was mating season,just could not resist taking the picture of these beautiful pairTime
Its was taken in the mid afternoon about one oclockLighting
The lighting is natural no flash needed it was a beautiful sunny day no clouds, on the 1st of AprilEquipment
The camera i used was my old faithful Olympus SP-810UZ it has a 36xwide zoom lens HD/3D Digital i was resting on the railings of the balcony,Imaging Corp 1/800s.....F/6.3 ......Focal lengh 154.8mm.35mm equivalent 864mm........ISO 64Inspiration
We watched these birds every day so when they settled on the roof across from us it was not to be missed,i often only shot photos of there off springs never the adults, i think it was my lucky dayEditing
