Location
This image was taken at Exmoor Zoo, Devon , England. I small family owned zoo on Exmoor.Time
I took this one about 10.30am.Lighting
The bird was in an aviary & the lighting was not very good due to the enclosure, walls & foliage around it so I had to adjust the exposure to compensate for that.Equipment
My trusty Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200, a little great camera for all occasions.Inspiration
I loved the colouring of the bird. This is a Red Crested Touraco. the colours just seem to blend together perfectly.Editing
I little cropping & light adjustment. I also blurred the background a little to hide the wire enclosure.In my camera bag
I am so lazy as a photographer. I only ever carry my camera. I love the light weight of the Panasonic's as it make it easy to carry around all day wherever I go.Feedback
If a subject appeals to you, photograph it. There is a reason it is appealing to you. Everyone has different views on a subject & we don't all think alike. This is what make photography so interesting, seeing others point of view.
