Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my backyard in Owasso, Oklahoma.

Time

This was taken at 5:29 pm.

Lighting

The blue jay was sitting in the one place where I had enough natural lighting. If it had perched anywhere else it would have been in the shade.

Equipment

Canon 7D Mk II, Handheld with a Tamron 150-600mm Zoom Lens

Inspiration

Just love to watch the birds in the backyard. Blue jays are very vocal birds so was just watching to see what it was up too.

Editing

No

In my camera bag

For hiking I just carry my Canon 7D Mk II with my Canon 100-400 mm lens with a monopod.

Feedback

The best thing to do to catch birds is to be patient and enjoy what nature has to offer.
