This image was made at the Wildlife Rescue in Albuquerque, New Mexico where they rehabilitate birds of prey, but their injuries are such that they can’t be released back into the wild.Time
This was a photographer’s “breakfast with the birds”.Lighting
All natural light.Equipment
I shoot with a Pentax K3 Mark II., 18-300mm Sigma lens. That’s it. This is my go to setup wherever I’m shooting.Inspiration
He’s a beautiful creature that has had a pretty rough go of it. He deserves to be seen as beautiful.Editing
Processed in Nik Silver Efex Pro.In my camera bag
I usually carry two Pentax bodies, my 18-300mm lens, a 10-20mm wide angle, and my 400-600mm with a 1.8 extender for wildlife. That just about covers everything.Feedback
Patience and practice. Lots of both.
