Amazing capture - you must have tremendous patience to wait for the squirrels. They must be as tame as pets with all the food you give them lol - voted things I love

Behind The Lens

Location
This photo I shot in my open outside studio from my kitchen window. My house is in the middle of Sweden a village called Bispgården.
Time
This photo was taken on 2014-08-29 14:37. There was a beautiful day, but cloudy not much light
Lighting
This photo is taken with ambient light, that is why I had to shoot this with 640 iso.
Equipment
camera d7100, tripod, sigma 150-500 mm.
Inspiration
This is so a amazing time, autumn. I go out to the forest and search for good combinations of mushrooms. I always need some moss and set up my compositions depending on what I have found. Always place the food in a position I hope the squirrels will stand if they come. The moss and mushrooms I try to have some roots left so they can make it a few days.
Editing
In this case I had 2 simular shots, but 1 I focused on the mushrooms and the other on the squirrel short after each other so I good stack them to have some more details in the mushrooms.
In my camera bag
it seems it getting less. Now I take a canon eo 6 D with a 35-105 mm lens and a tripod and often a knife or axe or something for branches or other things what I can use for compositions.
Feedback
I try to find out why some shots are populair. Colors, light, peacefull back ground, open space, contact with the camera (often), composition, not always but the number 3 and the form triangel seems to work, these are some things most of my populair photos have in common. Most of my works are done from my kitchen window. I am not the type to wait in the forest, I am used that the wild animals come to me. I try to shoot in the envirement I life, that makes my live much easier.
