Behind The Lens
Location
I was on the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium of Tacoma, WashingtonTime
Around 10am i pass the tiger place like 4 times and they were sleeping or somewhere else so i went to see other places but then they anounced on the speakers that they will eat so i run to the place and asi the food was getting close to them, this guy started to walk slowly towards the eating place so i set there and wait to see if he raises his head and HE DID! Looked right to my camera so i took it (this was around 1pm or so)Lighting
It was a really good day, not sunny or cloudy just with a good lightEquipment
At that time i wasnt a professional photographer, so i was carrying my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18Inspiration
I really like animal pictures so around the zoo i tried not to show that i was actually in a zoo, i tried to capture the animal by it self and show its beautyEditing
I add a little bit of sharpness and take out some darkness from the green behing the tigerIn my camera bag
Now days i have my canon 70D, a 18-135mm lens and 50mm (lots of batteries)Feedback
Patience, i went to the Kruger National Park in South Africa and there you can actually enjoy the animals in the open field, you just need to be patient and not to think about anything else than the animal and what do you want to capture
