Location
This photo was taken at the San Diego Zoo.Time
It was sometime in the afternoon, under some trees.Lighting
I like to shoot in natural light the majority of the time. Find a shaded area, or shoot closer to the morning or evening when the sun isn't too harsh.Equipment
This image was shot with a Nikon D60.Inspiration
I really loved the colors of the birds and these two were having their own moment together while the rest flew around trying to find people with nectar cups.Editing
Just a little bit of contrast and saturation. Then some sharpening.In my camera bag
Now, I have a Nikon D7000 with a 50mm attached to it most of the time.Feedback
Keep your eyes open. There's always more to your surroundings than first glance.
