Location
This photo was taken on the banks of the Chobe river in Botswana. Late afternoon river cruse, the elephants were feeding on the soft green grasses.Time
Late afternoon, just before sunset.Lighting
Golden our photos are the best.Equipment
Hand held Canon 550D and Canon 100-400mm lens.Inspiration
These majestic animals was so relaxed, so awe inspiring, how could I not take a photo...Editing
I converted the shot to black and white, added a bit of contrast and decreased the exposure for a more silhouetted feel.In my camera bag
This photo was one of my first photos, almost my inspiring one! I did't have a ''real camera bag'' and borrowed the lens from a friend on the trip. Since then I bought a 7Dmkii for wildlife.Feedback
Make the most of every opportunity!! Be sure to always get perfect focus, its the most important thing in a photo!! For the rest, composition and lighting... play!!! We learn while we play around with settings. You will always be surprised, always learn something new!! If you learned something on your own, even in post-processing, you will never forget it!!
