Location
This photo was taken at the San Diego Zoo. The lighting was just perfect. Hand held photo.Time
Some friends had free tickets to the San Diego Zoo so we decided to make a day of it taking wildlife photos. This majestic pose by the king of the beasts was just to classic to pass up. It was taken just before noon but I don't remember what time of year.Lighting
The King was very cooperative by lying down in the best place for the lighting.Equipment
Canon 7D MKII with 28-135 Canon lens.Inspiration
Just trying to get good wildlife photos in the Zoo rather than spend a fortune on a safari and possibly not getting anything as good.Editing
Miniscule post-processing in photoshop. Just a little contrast and sharpening.In my camera bag
Canon 7D MKII, Canon 70-200 2.8 zoom lens, Tamron 16-400 zoom lens, Canon external flash.Feedback
Challenge yourself to get great outdoor landscape, wildlife, close-up and even portrait photographs in your own local area.
