Behind The Lens

Location

Cabarceno natural park, close to Santander, Spain.

Time

Around 6pm late March.

Lighting

Weather is changing very fast on the Atlantic front, so while the background was stormy and dark, later afternoon sun was just below the clouds illuminating the Lynx

Equipment

Sony A9 + FE 100-400 4.5/5.6 + x1.4 converter @470mm

Inspiration

Having this wonderful cat seated on the top of the rock with such light was enough ;)

Editing

A bit of color balance and seldom highlights/contrast adjustments.

In my camera bag

I tend to travel "light". Standard kit would be 2 bodies (A7RIII, A9), 3 lenses (24-105 f/4, 100-400 f/4.5, 50mm f/1.8) and a light tripod

Feedback

Be patient and try to anticipate the action of the animal. Rules applies in the wild and in captivity.
