Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in Kenya from a vehicle with a beanbag and a 500mm lens and a canon 7d.

Time

mid-morning

Lighting

natural light

Equipment

canon 7d with a 500mm lens and beanbag

Inspiration

Several cubs were walking towards us. I isolated single or double pair of cubs.

Editing

raw adjustments and increased sharpness.

In my camera bag

100-400mm and 500mm lens and canon 6d and 7d when this photo was taken. Now I carry a canon 5d mark 4 and a 7d mark 2 with the new 100-400mm and a 150-600mm lens.

Feedback

The apparent low angle was due to the 800mm equivalent lens which allowed the distant cubs to appear full frame.
