Behind The Lens

Location

In my neighborhood very early and cold!

Time

It was about 7am

Lighting

Very wintery grey and flat light!

Equipment

Canon 5D MK III and Canon 400/f5.6 L lens

Inspiration

Taking my dog for her morning walk and always take my camera and Tele lens! Heard a hoot and started looking in the trees and there he was!

Editing

My usual contrast edit because of the flat light and a little increase in color!

In my camera bag

Canon 7D MK II, Canon 5D MK III,Tamron 100-400 F/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD, l, Canon 100/f2.8 Macro-L, Canon 17-40 L and Tripod
