Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the highlands of Scotland Uk.

Time

I the shot was taken shortly after sunrise during golden hour.

Lighting

The light was key to the shot. Golden hour enhanced both the roe deer and the field.

Equipment

I used a canon 30d camera and a f2.8 is lens.

Inspiration

I was inspired by the roe itself and his location.

Editing

I used a little bit of sharpening, contrast and increased saturation in the post-processsing.

In my camera bag

I normal have filters spare batteries and memory cards in my camera bag.

Feedback

It’s good know your subjects location and habits. I visited the field a good few times allowing the roe deer to be used to my presence so he was curious rather than startled when I took the shot.
