Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the Kruger National Park in South Africa. This was a holiday we went on where I focused on using more skills to better my photography. It was an amazing way to learn new things.

Time

I went for a drive with my family to look at the animals and in search for the famous big five, one of them being the magnificent elephant. This photo was taken at sunset, the time of day that the elephants seek water after being in the heat of the South African Sun.

Lighting

This time of day was amazing to shoot because it is what I know as the "golden hour"

Equipment

This photo was taken using a Panasonic Lumix. I love these cameras and recommend them to beginner photographers wanting to expand their photography journey.

Inspiration

This was an amazing experience taking this photo because I was surrounded by beautiful scenery.

Editing

I made the photo black and white

In my camera bag

I try and carry as little equipment as possible to give myself more opportunities when it comes to shots that need to be taken quickly.

Feedback

Reach out of your comfort zone and try new things with your equipment. Don't be scared to go for quick shots that look natural instead of posed.
