Late morning around 11 a.m.Lighting
Slightly overcast, it had just stopped raining.Equipment
Nikon D 3100, 55-300 mm, tripod.Inspiration
Walking, I came across a bridge which resembled one I saw in a photo book. I went back to my van, took out my camera and prepared to take a few shots. Suddenly a gull landed on a post, and my attention turned towards the bird. As soon as I was in place, focusing, I accidentally pressed the shutter. I looked through my viewfinder, and the gull had flown away. It was not until I returned home that I realized I had taken a photo of the gull as it took flight. In essence, right place at the right time.Editing
No.In my camera bag
Normal lens and 55-300 mm.Feedback
As much as possible, be aware the best shots are those that are unexpected.
