Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from my maternal grandmother's village named Santala, which is situated in N 24.29 E 89.57, Upazila: Ullahpara, District: Sirajgonj, Division: Rajshahi, Bangladesh. This place is 200 km far away from capital city Dhaka, Bangladesh by road.

Time

I was roaming around my grandmother's village after having my breakfast. The day was 18 April, 2009, the time was 09:37:40. I found the owl in a garden.The weather was nice and clear.

Lighting

This photo was taken at morning summer time. Luckily, I found adequate day light and perfect sunlight on the subject.

Equipment

I used advanced digital point and shoot Camera Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd is based around a 1/2.3" CCD with a 10.0 effective megapixel resolution. The S8100's sensor sits behind a Fujinon-branded f/2.8 - f/4.5 18x optical zoom lens that offers a 35mm-equivalent focal range from 27 - 486mm. I did not used tripod, flash.

Inspiration

I love to do wild life photography. I often visit village area, forest for taking wild life. I visited my grandmother's village during summer time, on April, on that time, I found this rear type of owl named Little Owl. I'm so lucky to get this bird.

Editing

Yes, I did a bit post process like reducing warm by adjusting white balance, a bit light adjusting to like increase contrast, highlight and shadows.

In my camera bag

Mostly my photo subject is landscape, street life, portrait and wild life. I use full frame camera Canon 6D with 24-105 Lens f/4, Canon 50 prime f1/8 Lens, Canon 70-200 f/2.8 L ISII Lens. Yongnuo YN-565 EX flash, remote trigger, CPL filters, cleaning equipment etc.

Feedback

If you want to take wild life photographs you have to spend lot of times. It's not easy to capture a wild animal photographs perfectly. You have to wait for perfect light condition. You need bigger focal length lens above 400 mm. You need to know how to correct white balance otherwise it will spoil your photographs by producing wrong color. You must take shoot in raw for better post processing.
