Behind The Lens

Location

This classic picture was taken at Rietvlei Nature Reserve in Centurion, Gauteng, South Africa. This Great fun and lots of laughter.

Time

Taken on 21 Januaru 2016 at 14H39 the afternoon. One hot mid summers day

Lighting

Hot summersday, overcast with promise of rain. My settings was ISO 800 F8, shutterspeed 1/500 at 312mm

Equipment

As a beginner photographer with entry level equipment except for my lens. This was one of my first manual photos taken. Canon 1200D Lens Canon 100-400mm F5-5.6 IS USM. No flash used and handheld.

Inspiration

I spend a lot of time on trying to capture great birding and animal moments. This is a rare moment, not often seen and just the joy of laughter was a magic moment not to be missed. This Zebra kept us entertained for a good 5 minutes with her laughter and zest for life.

Editing

Thi picture as almost all my pictures are straight from camera. No editing done as my editing skills sucks and are limited to cropping and adding a watermark.

In my camera bag

As a beginner or amateur photographer I have my Canon 1200D, my Canon 100-400 F5-5.6 FS USM lens and two kit lenses 18-55 snd 75-200mm which I rarely use.

Feedback

Just be patient pay attention to animal behaviour. No matter the weather conditions take the shot, you might be surprised with the results. This is a rare moment, take as many shots as possible and have fun.
