Location
This photo was taken in a field in New Brunswick, Canada after a fresh snow fall.Time
The photo was taken around mid afternoon after patiently waiting for several hours for the perfect moment to capture a mother and her fawn during its first winter.Lighting
The freshly fallen snow added a brightness to the photograph that made the deer stand out all the more.Equipment
The camera I used was a Nikon Coolpix L820. No other equipment was used.Inspiration
There is something about photographing wildlife in their natural habitat that I find so inspiring, especially when capturing a moment like this between a mother and her fawn.Editing
I adjusted the contrast slightly to make the deer more defined and adjusted the lighting ever so slightly since it was cloudy overhead.In my camera bag
A typical photography adventure involves only my camera and I.Feedback
When photographing wildlife, it is important to be patient. The right shot will come along eventually.
