Behind The Lens

Location
Masaai Mara in December 2019.
Time
Picture was taken late afternoon with lazy moments spent with a tower of giraffe in some bushes.
Lighting
We had rain the whole day on and off and the dark skies and little light poking through the low clouds was amazing.
Equipment
D500 with Tamron 150-500.
Inspiration
The frame created by the trees made this ideal for the portrait.
Editing
Lightroom exposure, white balance and cropped slightly.
In my camera bag
I use whatever i can rent on Safari in Africa. I shoot with Sony, Nikon and DJI mostly.
Feedback
Go out and get to shoot as often as you can. Create the picture in your mind before pressing the shutter.
