Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on my back deck. It was a very cold subzero day, I looked out my kitchen window and saw this bird sitting on the deck by my bird feeder. I gathered up my camera and shot this image through the kitchen window.

Time

This beautiful bird made its appearance around 9 am . I noticed it on the deck as I was pouring a cup of hot coffee on a very cold morning

Lighting

Natural lighting for this shot, It was cold out but very sunny

Equipment

Canon T-6 camera, Tameron 150-600 mm lens, hand held shot with natural lighting

Inspiration

I love photography and try to snap pictures of anything each day to practice different camera setting, angles and lighting .

Editing

I enhanced the image and adjusted the white balance

In my camera bag

Canon T6, Canon 6D II, my go to lens are 50mm, 150-600mm and macro lenses, these are always in my bag. Occasionally I will take my tripod.

Feedback

This particular bird really enjoyed sitting on the deck at the south side of my house, I frequently looked out kitchen window to see what birds showed up for the day. Keep looking the visitors changed frequently that day
