There’s beauty in flight. I love the way the bird is silhouetted mid flight.

Behind The Lens

Location

In my little nook of Simi Valley there’s a tree I always find birds hanging out in and I wanted to try out my new lens and knew I’d find some good shots there.

Time

After work In the early evening just after the sun was setting

Lighting

A nice cloudy day which made the contrast so perfectly pleasing. The sun had just gone down or was about to and the cloud cover made a perfect soft box

Equipment

I used my Nikon d750 with my new tamron 70-200 2.8. No tripod.

Inspiration

I like hanging out around those trees as the birds are always there and I figured It’d be a great place to test out my zoom.

Editing

No post processing surprisingly as the cloudy sky looked all grey anyways

In my camera bag

My Nikon D750, my Nikon macro 105 2.8, a 16-35 Nikon and my Tamron 70-200 2.8 and my SB800 and always my lens cleaning kit

Feedback

Just going around your own neighborhood with an open mind as if you just visited you’ll end up seeing so much to photograph
