Location
At Port Renfrew in BC, CanadaTime
Am early morning walk did not lead to the sunrise photo I was after. As I headed back and the rain commenced I chanced upon this magnificent eagle.Lighting
The flat overcast light was perfect for this subject. It allowed for the highlights to not be blown out whilst keeping shadow detail. A perfect light combination.Equipment
I used a canon 7d2 with a 100-400l v2 lens. Handheld.Inspiration
Opportunistic photography is challenging and highly rewarding. I did not expect this shot but when it presented itself I couldn't resist.Editing
Simple levels, contrast, sharpening.In my camera bag
I always carry my trusty 100-400 v2, my 24-105 and my 10-22. It covers all scenarios and they never let me down.Feedback
West coast Canada has wonderful wildlife and nature opportunities both in the winter and summer. Be ready for opportunistic shots and be familiar with your equipment. Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.
