Location
This was taken on holiday, I would spend hours trying to get the Perfect bird shot on a beach or seafront. Often with Kit that was not up to the job a struggling actor life does not include expensive new Photo kit (But it's a A Challange have allways accepted lol). It's was dusk and I had perfected my antcipation of a swoop and this time my manual tracking was also spot on. I know I had a great shot. Time for ice-cream. XxTime
Late afternoon.Lighting
It was becoming overcast and the sun was low..Equipment
Just the camera my eye and my reflexes.Inspiration
I used to obsessively shoot birds on holidays lol They Nate tricky Sonu like the endless Challange.Editing
Sure I graded for dramatic effect. Bringing out the already striking nature of the shot..In my camera bag
I don't have a bag. Lol. But now I shoot on a Nikon D700 with 70/200f2.8 zoom a 2.0 nikor 50mmm and F1 8 old 20mm wide. Lots of studio work mainly. XFeedback
