Location
The photo was taken in woodland in Corby whilst walking my dog.Time
The image was taken around sunset. I find the golden hour brings everything to life.Lighting
The shot was taken directly towards the sunlight using the tree as a filter.Equipment
Believe or not this image was taken using nothing more than a Samsung s6 smartphone.Inspiration
I love the shape and form that silhouettes create. With the tiny bird perched on the tree gives a massive sense of proportion.Editing
Just a crop was needed to tidy up.In my camera bag
My bag usually consists of a Sony a58 body to which I carry a standard lens and an 70 -300. A good sturdy tripod and a collection of nd filters. Although with today's technology a good photograph can be taken using the camera of most good smartphones.Feedback
Fire into the light source using part of the image to filter out the light to create stunning silhouettes. With the right technique anything is possible. Have fun!
