Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken on the fields near to my Home in Poland.Time
I took this picture in April 2012. I woke up an hour before sunrise and i went to the countryside. I hid in the bushes at the edge of the field and waited. After about an hour i saw the pair of pheasants. This male pheasant came quite close to me.Lighting
I was using only the ambient light, the sun was still low on the horizon, behind my back.Equipment
I used Nikon D5000 and Sigma 70-300 f 4-5,6 APO DG and tripod.Inspiration
I like to observe and photograf nature, it's my way to take a brake from the daily routine. This is also a form of relaxation.Editing
I just developed a raw file.In my camera bag
It's basic amateur equipment - Nikon D5000 DLSR camera, Nikkor AF-S 18-105 f3,5-5,6 VR, Sigma 70-300 f 4-5,6 APO DG, Sigma 50 mm f 2,8 DG Macro, otherwise som filters, remote and Silk 330DX tripod.Feedback
Photografing of wild species requires a lot of patience and knowledge about habits of animals. It's enough for start.
