Location
I took this photo at the Orlando Wetlands Park in Florida.Time
I went out to the park early just as the sun was rising. Stayed for about two hours till the sun was starting to get high in the sky. I was about to leave when I saw this cardinal and decided to get a few shots. He co-operated quite well since normally they flit around so much it is hard to get a good shot.Lighting
I didn't think too much about lighting, but I remember it being early morning light.Equipment
Nikon D3200 on tripod.Inspiration
I love cardinals, and birds in general. His color just popped out there among the white flowers so I stayed longer than I had planned in order to gets some shots of this beautiful bird.Editing
No, I don't usually do any processing since I really don't know how! I am an amateur and most of my photography is point, shoot and a lot of luck!In my camera bag
My cameras, and several different lenses and sometimes my tripod comes with me.Feedback
Be patient and quiet !
