Behind The Lens

Location

I took it in Norfolk England

Time

I memory serves me right this particular one was in the morning

Lighting

I like to use diffused light where possible so the whites don't burn out

Equipment

Canon 1DX, Sigma 300mm f2.8, tripod

Inspiration

I have always liked kingfishers and finally I had the opportunity to do so

Editing

I opened the shot in Photoshop and cropped it slightly , then a little noise reduction but that's about it

In my camera bag

Canon 1DX, Canon 1D mk 4 , 600mm f4 and 70-200mm f2.8
