Behind The Lens

Location

Kruger National Park, South Africa

Time

Late afternoon on our Second day in the park. The family group walked right past our car and I manoeuvred the car sideway to get the shot as they were walking back away from us.

Lighting

It was a beautiful African day with magic light coming through the dark clouds of the morning rain.

Equipment

Nikon D7100, 70-200 F 2.8, Handheld.

Inspiration

In the moment the light, the subjects and the background just made for an emotional composition that worked.

Editing

Post in Lightroom CC and subject highlights in Photoshop

In my camera bag

Nikon Cropped sensors and good glass.

Feedback

Keep on shooting and go out there even if the conditions are not perfect.
