Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken at my husbands family ranch in Central Florida. It was near a water reservoir and i happened to look up and saw the osprey coming towards me with something in its talents. So i just pulled up my Sony Camera which i had with me and took the shot.

Time

I think it was later in the afternoon, since it gets a bit cooler later in the day.

Lighting

Nothing special … just auto setting for moving objects. Sorry i am not a professional so mainly shooting everything with auto settings ????

Equipment

I think at the time it was a Sony A100. with 300 mm lens. No other equipment used.

Inspiration

I love to take wildlife pictures. There is no posing or complaining by any of my objects. They just the way they are ???? Although in this case i really felt terrible, seeing the expression in the face if the fish …. it was so so sad. But that is nature ….

Editing

Nope and i wouldn’t even know how.

In my camera bag

I usually just have the camera with me …. If i have my bag in the car then i have back up batteries, some lenses, charger cable, small tripod and cleaning supplies in it.

Feedback

Just good luck and a eagle eye ????
