Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Gatorland Orlando Florida

Time

Mid day is not usually the optimal time but for this shot 12:30 PM was just the right time !

Lighting

This seemed to be an unusual situation and I did not know how long the snowy egret would rest on the alligators back ..fortunately it was longer than I expected

Equipment

Canon 70D hand held Sigma 50-500 (ISO 100 f9 203mm)

Inspiration

This Snowy Egret seemed quite comfortable on the back of the alligator and rested there for a few minutes

Editing

Very little post processing was needed, minor cropping and minor tonal adjustments

In my camera bag

I always carry 2 camera bodies ..Canon 70D and Canon 90D.My favorite lens Sigma 50-500, Canon L series 70-300 Canon 18-135 for landscapes and Hoya CIR-PL 67

Feedback

Practice practice practice and experiment! Keep the position of sun in mind. And take a lot of shots! This was a lucky shot for me ! Happy shooting!
