Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken from my house in the Lanquedoc region of France. I was trying for several days to get a clear photo that I could zoom in on.Time
I spent the morning taking various photos of the birds at my feeder, from inside my house so as not to disturb them.Lighting
This is natural morning light. I wanted to get some light reflecting on the eyes.Equipment
This was a hand held shot with a Canon EOS M3 with a 55-250 mm lens.Inspiration
Having moved to France from the East coast of the United States, I am fascinated with all the birds I have never seen before.Editing
This is a very enlarged photo, close cropped. I have some basic noise reducing software, which with an enlargement of this magnitude came in handyIn my camera bag
I have always with me my Canon EOS M3. I take a lot of landscape photos and distance shots so I have a Canon 55-250mm as my standard lens which I leave on the camera at all times so I am ready to shoot when the opportunity arisesFeedback
I suggest using Aperture priority AV setting for clear focus and softer backgrounds.
