This photo was taken at the Mountsberg Raptor Centre, as part of a group photography outing.Time
I love this image, it was fairly early morning, and I was fortunate to catch his face as he had turned away, but turned his head back towards us.Lighting
As a novice with my camera at the time, I like the blurry background, but it certainly wasn't intentional LOLEquipment
I took this on my Fuji FinePix, handheld, and likely in Auto, as i hadn't taken courses about how to use the camera's settings fully at the time.Inspiration
I was on a group outing with a bunch of fellow amateur photographers, and we were able to take photos of several very awesome birds.Editing
All I did with this photo was some minor cropping.In my camera bag
Just my Fuji and my cell phoneFeedback
take advantage of the local raptor rehab facilities who offer group or individual opportunities to get up close to their birds, it's a great opportunity to get some quality shots of birds that you may not be able to get close to in the wild.
