Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at the back Garden, as i knew there was a couple of birds built up the home for a new members.

Time

As i was remember, i was a hot day early afternoon,i heard lot of noise as i was doing a gardening, and i saw mother bird trying to feed the young. This is a good opportunity to take some shoots.

Lighting

This was afternoon light, the ambient very intense, the shot was taken under the foliage of the tree. illuminated surrounding enough for this shot.

Equipment

I have Nikon d8oo,with 105mm f2.8 Macro G lense on , this one of my favor set up for a shallow DOF , because of clarity of the lense i always have it on my camera.

Inspiration

what inspired me on the shot, the colours, the textures, the nature of our beautiful planet,as i always love macro the Hidden treasure of colour, Texture,shapes, forms, and lines.....

Editing

This shot was taken with the setting picture control- landscape, white balances was set to -Autos the post-procesing in light room on contrast, saturation, clarity,and vignetting, then cropped in square the because of the composition. i exported to Photoshop just increase a bit of contrast on layer overlay. and removed unwanted distraction..

In my camera bag

The equipment i carried in my bag was as usual are one camera body Nikon D800, 105mm macro f2.8 G, 24-70mm f2.8, and 70-200mm f2,8 with a few filter Hoya nd400, Hoya nd8, circular pl,also the shutter release, also a good steady Tripod.

Feedback

My advice on capture similar shot are, always think of the composition,make sure there is a clear center of interest, as in this picture was a middle chic. Try to see the light and shade, shape by squint your eye. this is always work for me, A macro Lense, would be perfect for this shot because a Dof to maximize the isolation by blurring the the supporting elements and concentrated on the focal point. (point of interest)
