Location
I took this photo on the side of an old back road not traveled very much by others where there is a cow pasture and many wild blackberries growing, I am a self taught photographer and this photo was shot hand held.Time
This is one of my favorite birds to photograph and it gets hot pretty early in the day so I was up around 6:00 am to go find this little beauty and I had been out for a couple hours and then finally spotted him showing off and just a singing around 9 am.Lighting
This is all natural lighting from a sunny day with the sun behind me and my subject facing the sun.Equipment
This was taken with Nikon D7200 and a Tamron lens SP150-600mm F/5-6.3 with no other equipment usedInspiration
This little beautiful bird inspired me to take his photo when he popped up on the fence and started singing and fluttering his wingsEditing
I do very little post processing maybe a crop a little I adjust the sharpness and noise reduction but never change the colorIn my camera bag
I have 2 Nikon D7200 Bodies I have Nikon D5000 and a D3200 bodies I have my 150-600mm lens a 55-200mm a 18-55mm and a wide angle at 10-20mm with a couple extra batteries for each body . And a couple extra sd cardsFeedback
Be patient and know what area too look in for these birds
