Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on a day drip to the Desert Museum in Tucson, Arizona. This beautiful grey wolf was lounging in the coolness of his habitat. I was wondering what he was thinking.

Time

This was taken in the early morning hours.

Lighting

I like taking photos in natural light. Use it!

Equipment

This was taken with a Nikon J1, aperture f/5.6, ISO 250, handheld, no flash, natural light.

Inspiration

I love animals and what better place than to see what Arizona has for wildlife than the Desert Museum.

Editing

I did very little processing, just an auto check.

In my camera bag

I usually just take this Nikon J1 with me. It is a lightweight camera that I can either use auto or manual settings.

Feedback

The best advice is patience! Allow the animals to do what they do and wait. It also helps to arrive at a time of day when they will be active.
