Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at the Toronto Zoo in Toronto Canada

Time

This photo was taken in the late afternoon early evening as myself and my husband were wrapping up our trip

Lighting

I loved how the light made the coils of the snakes body shine and kind of frame its head.

Equipment

This photograph was shot with a Nikon Coolpix L840. No other equipment was used.

Inspiration

I love to photograph nature. It started as an activity I could do to connect with my son that has some mental issues and it seems to have grown from there. This particular photo is inspired by my son's love of the creepy and my love of green.

Editing

I can honestly say most of my photography is raw as I'm self taught.

In my camera bag

Just my Nikon and a pair of hiking shoes is usually all I take with me on my trips.

Feedback

I would like to say something smart and witty but I think it's luck for me personally. I've been told I have a good eye but I honestly look for an image to just give me a sense of peace. Photography that expresses a strong emotion was a way that myself and my son were able to find a way to communicate. The only real advice I can give is to follow your heart and do what you love.
