Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my backyard, on my way to the park with the kids. I just so happen to have my 600mm telephoto lens with me.

Time

It was taken right in the middle of the day. Who says you can't get good photos during the day.

Lighting

Nothing special here, taking in daylight.

Equipment

Nikon D800, Tamron 150-600mm.

Inspiration

I often see these beautiful little Wrens chirping away in the trees close to our house. But they move so quick, it's really hard to get a photo of them. This male kept flying away as soon as I got close. I kept "chasing" him, and eventually managed to snap off a few shots before he flew off again.

Editing

Mostly just some contrast and sharpening.

In my camera bag

Nikon D800, Nikkor 14-24mm, 24-70mm. Tamron 150-600mm. I love all of these lenses.

Feedback
