Behind The Lens

Location

I shot this picture on a walking safari in Tanzania. This was in Arusha National Park, a park that is really underestemated.

Time

This picture was shot in the afternoon around 3 o'clock.

Lighting

The sun was my only light source and was besides me.

Equipment

I used a nikon d3300 with a tamron 150-600 on a monopod while walking.

Inspiration

these birds looked so beautifull and i really wanted 1 good shot of these birds. I chased them for a couple of minutes and then i finally got my best picture, this picture.

Editing

I used lightroom and i just keep tweaking untill i am satisfied.

In my camera bag
