Behind The Lens

Location

Taken in the suburb of Columbus, Ohio near a water park.

Time

This picture was taken mid morning around 11:30 am

Lighting

There was nothing but clear blue sky's on this beautiful spring day.

Equipment

Shot with a Sony Alpha 58 and no tripod.All natural sunlight.

Inspiration

Big Herons are known to be in this area often. I have seen a few near here, but I have never seen one this big and so close.

Editing

I added a touch of brightness and hue in the post process via pic monkey.

In my camera bag

Most often I carry my Sony Alpha 580 and my Canon 60 D with 250 mm lens and a 85 mm lens.

Feedback

I had my camera set to Manual at f/4 and 1/400.
