Location
I took this photo of my pet cat, Bob, at home in my living room.Time
I took this image during the day. Bob was lying in front of the patio doors so there was a nice light.Lighting
If taking a photograph in a room and it is nice and light outside - a window is always a good place to put your subject. Not always easy with pets as they have a mind of their own!Equipment
On this occasion I did not use any equipment. I just got down on the same level as Bob so would have had my camera on the carpet.Inspiration
Being my much loved pet, I am always looking to take photos of him.Editing
I may have darkened the image slightly and cropped it but that would have been about it.In my camera bag
In my bag I have a 30mm f2.8 macro lens, a 50mm f1.8 portrait lens and a 55-300mm f4.5-5.6 lens. The 18-55 f3.5-5.6 is normally on my camera. There is also a flash unit in my bag as well as various lens cleaners, spare batteries and memory cards.Feedback
When photographing a pet cat, in particular, always a good time when they are relaxed and dozy and by a window!
