Behind The Lens

Location

I'm a self taught amateur still learning everyday.. This was taken at my local zoo , when I was trying low key photography,using spot metering and EV compensation..

Time

Taken during the morning ,utilising the light conditions

Lighting

I was trying low key photography so waclooking for high contrast and shaded background

Equipment

I used my canon 1dx mk2 with 500mm f4 L lens

Inspiration

Having seen similar images and having a fascination with the light I thought it would be a challenge

Editing

I used a radial gradient to emphasize the light spot and push the background back

In my camera bag

1dx mk2 and 5d mk3 bodies ,500mm, 100-400mm , 24 -105 mm lenses

Feedback

Watch and use the light .look for shaded background to help with the dark background in final image
