Location
This photograph was taken taken at a small country park in Bury in Lancashire, North West England on of the small duck ponds.Time
This was taken ealry in the morning while the country park is quite, I find being along allows me to get closer to nature which members of the public walking up and down the paths.Lighting
This was a very dull overcast day which really helps to darken the water leaving a black backdown which i feel really makes this monochrome image pop.Equipment
To capture this images a used a Canon 7D Mark II with a Tamron 150-600 Di VC USD lens.Inspiration
The inspration for the image was how this gosling is similar who our own metal health in terms of we may appear calm and peaceful on the top but underneath the water line the little legs where going like crazy as it swims closer.Editing
This images was editing in Adobe camera RAW, then into photoshop also using Nik Software.In my camera bag
Various canon lens but recently bought a Sigma 150-600 OS HSM SportFeedback
I would say keep an eye on reflections and tones and always keep in mind that will this scene suit monochrome conversations.
