Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Noorder dierenpark in Emmen, shortly before this group of impalas was mover to the new zoo Wildlands. The impalas eyes even looked bigger than they are. They were a bit scared.

Time

At 12.30 PM

Lighting

This photo was taken inside. The light was soft, but it was enough.

Equipment

CAMERA: Canon EOS 650D LENS Tamron 16-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD Macro

Inspiration

Just visit zoo's, preferably zoo's where the animals have a lot of space (like Wildlands in Emmen). Take your camera and be patient!

Editing

Animals in a zoo always inspire me. I love taking portraits op animals.

In my camera bag

I used Lightroom and Photoshop to remove some imperfections.
