I took this photo in a small wood near Quebec cityTime
I don't remember the time of the day but i know that the weather was great to take pictures. Not to bright and not to dark.Lighting
I don't like when we have full sunny day. I prefer a sky just a little bit cloudy. It's more easier to get a good exposure.Equipment
I always use my Nikon D800 with several lenses. A 500 F/4, 300F/2.8and a 70-200/2.8. No flash.Inspiration
I'm not a guy who think what i will shoot. I shoot what i see at the moment and hope that it will be nice. It work sometimes ;)Editing
I shoot in raw so i don't have the choice of post process my photos. I use capture nx2 for raw and adjust with PS CS6In my camera bag
My 70-200, few batteries and something to clean my gear if it's nesseceryFeedback
Try to get the most beautiful background first. Don't try to shoot birds in blue sky..it's awful. Stay in af-c mode with 9 points maximum.Be sure to have a good speed to get sharp images. Be patient it will be always an occasion to get nice pics.
