Behind The Lens

Location
This photo was taken during one winter day in our country with one falconer and his beautiful bird. The owl was left to freely wander around and he just loved to sit on this snowy branch and make funny faces
Time
Since there was no sun and it was snowing a bit, the light was ok, so this photo was taken early in the afternoon
Lighting
The owl picked a great spot for photo, since the surrounding snowy trees and branches created a nice bokeh and background
Equipment
Taken with Canon camera 5DIII, with no tripod, nor flash, lens used was 400mm/2,8
Inspiration
I love animals and owls are special, since in our country it is very difficult to find them, I took the opportunity and agreed the shooting with a falconer
Editing
Not much of post-processing done - just white balance to have the snow nicely white
In my camera bag
camera, various lenses, cleaning kit, binocular, filters etc.
Feedback
If there is no chance for wild animal, and you still want the picutre, try to search for contacts, you may find someone who can help and you can support good thing for example lost or injured animals sanctuary etc.
