Location
The photo was taken in my front yard. I tried my best to get a clear shot, however the wind kept blowing the leaves of the palm tree. In the end I liked the motion of the blowing palm leaves.Time
The photo was take around 10 in the morning. I was just searching the front garden for some photo opportunity and tried this ambitious shot of the weaver sitting quite high up the tree.Lighting
It was quite tough getting the manual settings right with the wind blowing the leaves around as the shade on the object kept on changing. I just picked 200 iso and hoped for a clear good shot, as al amateurs do!Equipment
Canon EOS200d and 300mm lensInspiration
It is just amazing to be able to capture a beautiful bird. We see all kinds of birds on a daily basis and never do we stop and realize just how beautiful this amazing creatures are, until you have a camera in the hand!Editing
