Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo in Montebello, Québec, Canada.Time
Very early in the morning, if i remember good.Lighting
The sky was cover and it was snowing. The light was then perfect, since it was equal, no highlight and no dark shadow.Equipment
For the lense my 28-300 with a nikon d7100 - f/71. at 1/250 and 400 iso.Inspiration
The two Wapiti where there looking at me... So i just had to get out of my car, and let them know that i was no danger to them, i did not move or try to get closer. I hand the time to get a few clicks before they got up and leave. It was a magical moment.Editing
Not much... balance the light, white point, shadow, highlight, etc.In my camera bag
Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens, a Tokina12-24mm F/4 and a Nikon d7100. I travel light !Feedback
My best advice would be to alway look around you , you never know when a scene like this one will pop out. So you have to be ready and know your gear to be able to take a shot without having to look for your settings...
