Behind The Lens

Location

In Eastern part of Finland the bears are more obvious to be seen. This was taken in a hide, Kainuu, Martinselkonen is the exact place.

Time

In midsommer you can shoot all night long, there's no total darkness at all. This was taken early in the evening, I think around 21.

Lighting

Not much to say, after sunset the light is quite even during the night.

Equipment

Canon 6D, canon 200mm, tripod and a hide.

Inspiration

When you see these guys playing, there' s not much extra inspiring needed.

Editing

Ligtroom basics, whites, blacks, noise reduction, lens correction etc.

In my camera bag

Canon 6D, 7D2, sigma 15mm and 20mm, zeiss 35mm, canon 300mm, tc 1,4x.

Feedback

When bear cubs arrive, there's plenty of stuff happening all the time. You have to concentrate in one piece at the time, knowing you loose something else. This particular moment last only a second, allthough I followed this individual guy over an hour. So try to be patient and first have a look around, choose the target and then stick to the plan.
