Location
This was taken from a hide on our first night at Martinselkonen Wilderness Lodge, Finland.Time
It was taken in the late evening when the bears come out to play.Lighting
Nothing special, just what mother nature provided. It was the end of July and it's almost 24 hours daylight at that time of year.Equipment
Nikon D7100 & 300mm F4 PF. Gitzo ball head, the hides have shevles and heavy steel base plates you can screw your head onto.Inspiration
I wanted to see some European brown bears, Finland is a good place to see them and it was my birthday.Editing
Not a lot of post-processing, maybe a bit of a crop for composition.In my camera bag
These days, 2 x Olympus EM-1 mk ii, M.Zuiko 300mm F4 Pro, Leica Elmarit 50-200mm F2.8-4.0, M.Zuiko 12-40mm F2.8 Pro, 1.4 TC, 30mm F3.5 & 60mm F2.8 Macro lenses, 3 legged thing punks tripod.Feedback
Go to Finland, be prepared to sit up all-night to get the shot.
