Location
This photo was taken at Claremont Gardens which is a National Trust property In springtime when all the baby goslings are arriving.Time
This was taken round midday, the garden was nice and peaceful and it was a great time to capture the babies sleeping. I got reasonably close to mum and baby but not to close to disturb them.Lighting
I decided to visit the gardens on a week day when less people was around, this helped me to capture a relax and more natural picture. The lighting was sunny intervals and not to bright to save over exposing.Equipment
The camera I used was my bridge fuji HS10 which was at full zoom, hand held.Inspiration
I was off work for the day, the weather was nice and the baby goslings are cute when they are tiny. I went to the gardens to capture the perfect picture but not expecting to find a baby asleep on mums back.Editing
I am not good with post processing, this picture was sharpened slightly and slightly changed the contrast.In my camera bag
I often take my Fuji XS-1 and my latest camera which is an Olympus OM-D + additional lenes.Feedback
Go on a bright day when the weather is calm and not many people are around. Sit and watch for any opportunity to capture your perfect shot.
