Behind The Lens

Location
I shot this while on holiday in Thailand at Phuket Bird park. You can get nice and personal with all the animals.
Time
I took this in the morning before the sun got too high. The colors of the sunrise and sunsets there can be stunning
Lighting
I zoomed in to get just the eye and surrounds to get a more dramatic look
Equipment
I use a Nikon D7000 with 75-300 kit lense. I try to get all the settings just right so as not to have to spend too much time in post processing.
Inspiration
I love nature shots and landscapes but I also look for alternatives in every angle.
Editing
Post processing was just a little saturation and adjusted whites and blacks
In my camera bag
I always carry everything I can with me. D7000,18-55 kit. 55-300 kit lense. SB900 flash. Diffuser. Macro extension tubes 50mm 1.8 lense. ND2-1000 filters. Graduated filters plus asst other bits and pices.
Feedback
Thailand is a photographers paradise. There is something to see everywhere you go. Much like Melbourne where I live.
