Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at Windermere, Lake District, UK. I had been there solo with the Woods coaches. (5 th April 2016)

Time

It was around 5:30 pm.

Lighting

This was clicked in natural light, it was cloudy.

Equipment

I clicked it using Nikon D5300 and kit lens 18-55 mm. No flash used and it was a hand held click.

Inspiration

Aww !! such a tiny cutie...not bigger than my hand span. The moment I saw it, I felt like taking it home with me. Initially, I clicked a pic..it turned away..I tried again n again...but no luck for paparazzi. I gave up. I whistled and it looked at me. So, I whistled and clicked it's pic... :)

Editing

No processing done. :)

In my camera bag

I had Nikon D5300, kit lens 18-55 mm and 55-300 mm lens. A monopod, spare battery, a spare card, lens cleaning cloth.

Feedback

Keep Clicking !! Keep Experimenting !! and Enjoy the moment. :)
