Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Tadoba Andheri National Park, Maharashtra India

Time

This was one of my favorite approach to Wildlife fine arts as it was around 5:30 PM when the sun was nearly down to horizon and a slit of light through the trees fell on the strong head of the Indian Gaur

Lighting

Yes indeed. Photography in a dull light condition is indeed a challenge and yet finding the right spot to capture the slightest slit of sunlight on the bright whitish head of the Gaur was one of my favorite motivations in this trip.

Equipment

Nikon D5300 with Tamron 150-600mm Di USD VC G2

Inspiration

Willingness to showcase the core of the true power of an Indian Gaur who can even uproot a tiger from the ground!

Editing

Yes. Introducing a bit if grains to make it more dramatic, gradients to make the focus right on to where I wanted and a bit of crop and rotations along with basic exposure balancing.

In my camera bag

Nikon D5300 Tamron 150-600mm G2 Tamron 70-300mm Nikon 18-55kit lens. Oh yes I don't use tripod and I try to train my hands to be stable as nothing else.
