Behind The Lens

Location

I was at a raptor release event in SW Minnesota.

Time

Mid Morning.

Lighting

Just made sure the sun was not straight at him or me.

Equipment

Canon 6D with Tamron lens.

Inspiration

I took many photos that day. It's a semi annual event where the University and the Raptor Center release all the recovered raptors into the wild.

Editing

A little here and there but nothing fancy.

In my camera bag

Canon 6D, 50mm lens and a multi focal 24-300 Tamron.

Feedback

Patience. Shooting birds sometimes can take all morning. Thankfully this was a controlled event where there were several raptors and many very tame from the University. This Eagle was named Othello.
