Behind The Lens

Location

Venice Florida

Time

Late afternoon.

Lighting

Sun was just starting to go down. Nice little glow on the bird.

Equipment

Canon - new Canon 70-200 lens, which I just had purchased.

Inspiration

I had just bought the 70-200 lens and was anxious to test it out. There's always plenty of things to take photos of at the beach!!!

Editing

Just cropped it a bit.

In my camera bag

Lots of various lenses, my camera, spare batteries, lens cloth and battery charger.

Feedback

Pilots and bus drivers do "circle checks." They check out all the mechanics of their vehicles. Taking pictures is no different. Every time I go someplace new with my camera I do a "circle check." I check my ISO, shutter speed, lens, etc. No two places are alike, and the light is forever changing!
