Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the Toronto Zoo.

Time

Usually I need almost a day to explore the zoo - it has a huge and having fun is guaranteed! I believe I was taking this picture around noon but as it's indoor shooting, time of day is not significant.

Lighting

You should take your shot with low F as condition of light is not perfect. I was shooting with F4.

Equipment

I used my reliable Canon 70D and very convenient lens - Canon EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM

Inspiration

Mother Nature runs the show they say. What could be more inspirational that a polar bear enjoying cold water and making bubbles? He made a shot, not me!

Editing

Not really. I believe if you know how to shot, your post - processing is minimum.

In my camera bag

Nowadays is Fuji X100T for every day (streets etc.) and Canon 70D if I want to do some landscape photography.

Feedback

Patience, patience and ....patience again. Find a clear spot and wait till all visitors are gone. Sometimes you have to be incredibly stubborn to capture a good nature shot. Good luck!
