Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my home as its my pet bird that is predictable with where he likes to stop.

Time

Taken at night with only a couple of house lights on inside.

Lighting

The background as on colour was the most important.

Equipment

Used my Nokia D3300 with 18-55mm lens

Inspiration

I had looked at other photographers photos of birds recently and wanted to try taking a photo in a slightly more controlled environment to see what I could do with my camera.

Editing

I cropped the photo slightly and increased the warm colors to give a softer outline.

In my camera bag

My Nokia camera, two lenses and tripod. Only just starting the journey.

Feedback

Patience is the biggest thing. I constantly try to get photos of animals and the biggest thing I keep learning is that you have no control over them, so all you can do is set the camera to multi shot and just keep taking shots. Don't check until later. I found it's one good shot to a good 40 photos with animals and I had to allow them to do what they wanted.
