Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at the Royal Horticultural Society gardens at Wisley here in Surrey, England

Time

It was take a roughly 3pm and it was quite by chance that the Robin landed on the gate post in front of me, this is why you should take your camera everywhere with you as you never know what opportunities may arise.

Lighting

It was taken in natural light on a slightly cloudy day.

Equipment

Canon 5DSR, Canon 70-200mm f2.8' no flash and hand held.

Inspiration

The Robin landed in front of me and I ceased the opportunity to take the picture.

Editing

Slight lightening and a crop.

In my camera bag

Canon 5DSR, spare batteries, Canon 7D mk 2, 100mm f2.8 macro lens, 70-200mm f2.8, Canon 50mm f1.2, Sigma art lens 35mm f1.4

Feedback

Always have your camera with you, batteries charged and a spare memory card as you never know what you may spot when out and about
