Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from Fisherman’s Park at Conowingo Dam in Darlington, MD

Time

I believe it was late afternoon. We were actually getting ready to leave when this eagle made its fishing run.

Lighting

There was nothing special I did in relation to the lighting though it was fortunate since it was late afternoon the sun was behind me.

Equipment

Sony Rx10 III which is an all in one camera with a 600 zoom lens.

Inspiration

Like all photographers who love to photograph eagles I desire to get those great flying and fishing shots. Most of the time the eagles fish further away from the fence line. My Mom and I had spent the day at the Dam without a whole lot of activity. I was waiting for her to use the facilities before we headed out when all of a sudden this beautiful eagle decided to make a fishing run right in front of us!!

Editing

Like most photographers I don’t shoot in RAW so mr editing is limited. Generally I adjust what I can, exposure, contrast, shadows and clarity to my liking.

In my camera bag

Just my camera!

Feedback

Practice, practice, practice! ????
