Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the zoo. The leopard wasn't moving, and in an attempt to get its attention - I tried to mimic it's growl that I heard it do earlier.

Time

It was around dusk.

Lighting

It was available light.

Equipment

Nikon D2X with a Nikkor 300mm f4.0 afs lens

Inspiration

I love cats - big or small.

Editing

Not much post-processing. Adjusted the color and contrast a bit.

In my camera bag

Which bag. :-) I pack different gear depending on what I intend to shoot. Often I shoot both Canon and Nikon gear, because of slight color rendering differences between the manufacturers.

Feedback

Pay attention to the background and fill the frame.
