Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken while camping down near Fredericksburg Texas, the pature behind the campsite had a number of friendly burros that just loved apples...Time
This would have been taken late afternoonLighting
It was an overcast weekend, so lighting for the whole trip was a bit mutedEquipment
This was taken with a Canon 5D mk III and 300mm F4L lensInspiration
We were feeding the burros some apples we had onhand through a fence, and I was just taking some shots for funEditing
very little was done to this shot, just a little tweaking in LightRoomIn my camera bag
These days my 'walk about' setup is a Canon RP Mirrorless with a 24-240mm lens, but I'll also carry a 5D Mk III with any number of lenses if I'm looking to shoot something specific. I do have a couple of crop sensor bodies if I want a bit more reach, the extra magnification from the 1.6 crop factor helps there. I'm usually looking for cool things at random while traveling, so I often don't plan shots beforehand - I'm a pretty impromptu/opportunistic photographer. I've found I spend the most time with various prime lenses or some sort of super-zoom so I don't have to changes lenses out in the open.Feedback
I wasn't really going for a reflection in this shot, I was just doing a closeup of the eye playing around - I didn't notice I had caught a mirror image of myself until later - check small details of the shots you take on a big screen, you never know what you might have missed!
