Location
I took this photograph in my garden.Time
We get a variety of birds in the garden, we have a few feeders about so depending on their position we tend to attract different birds. The Chaffinch generally arrive and leave in pairs, sometimes they feed together sometimes not. This male was a few feet away from his mate at the time which was taken at 10:17 in the morning.Lighting
Taken in ordinary daylight really, taken in the morning ( 10:17) in February so not that warm so the birds were looking for any winter morsels.Equipment
Canon EOS 1200D, 75-300mm Canon zoom lensInspiration
Just love the colours of these little garden birdsEditing
Slight fixing of clarity of colours but nothing elseIn my camera bag
Camera plus a 75-300mm zoom lens, a wide angle lens and a standard 18-55mm lens, plus lots of spare fully charged batteriesFeedback
Patience above all will win the prize photo in the end, patience is a virtue.
