Location
I took this in a garden in the west of Scotland. It was a misty, foggy day and as we walked around this little Robin followed us. I took about 20 photos, but this one was my favourite.Time
It was mid morning.Lighting
It was overcast and misty so there was no direct light.Equipment
I used a Canon 700D with a 18-55mml lens. I nearly always shoot in Manual but switched to Auto as the Robin was flitting about, but when I realised it was going to stay still on that branch I switched back to Manual and got 3 or 4 great photos.Inspiration
I love Robins and the way this bird hung about us so closely, it was a no brainer to snap away.Editing
Nothing but a slight crop.In my camera bag
My Canon 700D, a 50mm lens, a 18-55mm lens and a spare battery.Feedback
I think for this one it was to garb the opportunity, get as close to the subject as I could and take lots of photos with different settings.
