Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in my front yard. I feed the local birds daily, provide them with fresh clean water and it attracts them into my yard. This provides me with ample opportunities to take candid action photos of my native visitors.Time
This photo was taken in the early afternoon on 15th March, 2015. The bird bath in my front yard is a great attraction for the local birds.Lighting
Natural light was used in this shot.Equipment
This shot was taken on a Canon EOS 7D f/4.0 ISO 400, shutter speed 1/1600 and focal length 70/1.Inspiration
I am an amateur photographer learning how to take my photos manually. My aim at this stage was to capture interesting action photos of the native birds in flight from my area.Editing
I shoot all my photos in raw, and use Lightroom to process my photos. I did crop this photo as it was taken at some distance.In my camera bag
I generally pack my Canon 70-200mm zoom lens, Canon 28-135mm lens, spare batteries, cleaning cloth, spare caps and my Canon 100mm macro lens.Feedback
Persistence, practice, practice and more practice is the key. Also I found that joining an amateur group of photographers, and absorbing any information that they are willing to share was very helpful to me.
