Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at Feilding Bird Sanctuary near Sudbury, Ontario.

Time

Around 6pm

Lighting

The sun was starting to go down so it made for more dramatic lighting.

Equipment

I was shooting with a Canon T5i using a 300mm telephoto lens.

Inspiration

I was taking pictures of ducks when I could hear this pair loudly announcing their arrival.

Editing

I adjusted the lighting and cropped.

In my camera bag

Just my camera and a couple lenses. Extra battery and SD cards. Starting out with the basics.

Feedback

My best advice is to be patient. I didn't go there expecting to get this shot. Just keep your eyes and ears open and the shot will come to you.
