Sam the eagle(from the muppet show) that lives by our fishing cabin
See all

Behind The Lens

Location

This is a close-up image of one of our favorite residents at our fishing camp at Kemano B.C... "Sam the Eagle" (named after sam the eagle from the muppet show)

Time

We were just finished a late lunch when we found "Sam" flying in to raid our fish net just before 2pm, during low tide.

Lighting

my pictures are usually about animals and landscaping.....so lighting usually isn't a concern....well, not with me anyway lol

Equipment

I use a Pentax k-m (10megapixal) with no flash or tripod...just luck most of the time

Inspiration

I was just going to check our net when sam started to fly towards me and the net....I have many more of him, but this is my favorite

Editing

other than enlarging the image....not touched-up

In my camera bag

just my Pentax with it's original lens....and luck with lighting most of the times

Feedback

take as many pictures as possible with the main subject in as many other spots on the screen as possible, and one will jump out as a favorite..... also get other people's opinion to find out what they prefer to see
