Behind The Lens
Location
Ilfracombe harbour, in North Devon. Just beneath the utterly hideous Verity. So if you go there - just ignore the modern "art" & look for birds & seals instead.Time
Around midday in late January. Not an ideal time to take photos - but that's when I was there ...Lighting
Not really, the sun normally does all that bit ...Equipment
Shot with a Cannon Eos 1300D, 58mm lens, no add on required.Inspiration
A love of birds & I always enjoy visiting the West Country.Editing
Very little. I think the contrast was turned down a bit but that was about it.In my camera bag
Camera, bag for camera & a spare lens cap ...Feedback
Patience. Most birds fly away before a photo can be taken. Swans love to pose but mostly birds don't. I do add a lens sometimes for extra focus - but this gull wanted to be photographed. I was happy to oblige ...
