Location
I love local captures. This was alongside a pond by a supermarket parking lot.Time
As always, at this location, it's serendipity. How many birds, What species, The weather/light Here- late afternoon, Cloudy diffused lightLighting
At this location it's always the surprise of weather and time of day and how it affects the shadows on the lakeEquipment
I prefer handy and quick access smartphone camera shot in raw and then tweaked in photoshop before savingInspiration
This location is part of my daily excursions for grocery shopping - so i always have my camera/smartphone at hand, anticipating the surprise of the right momentEditing
The most i'll do is aim for richer contrast without over saturation, a slight sharpening to compensate for camera shake and a touch of "curves" to get just the right moodIn my camera bag
no bag, just phone in handFeedback
Well, the only advice i've ever offered is that it's in the Eye, not the Equipment.
