Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Lake Guntersville, AL, home of approximately 12 active eagles nests.

Time

The day this was taken was one of those days where the sun was shining and the sky was blue. I work remotely and live about 25 minutes from this particular best. It was a “late lunch break” about 2:30p when I just couldn’t sit at my desk any longer.

Lighting

It was a Beautiful sunny day in North Alabama with an abundance of natural light

Equipment

Taken with a Nikon D3500 camera using a Tamron 150-600 lens.

Inspiration

I am quite the competitor so my inspiration is the “challenge” of catching these Magnificent birds in flight, in their natural habitat. I am SO blessed to have this opportunity only 25 miles from my home

Editing

No major changes, just some minor adjustments using photo editing software

In my camera bag

Not a whole lot of equipment, I usually stick with my Tamron 150-600 lens with the eagles, but I also have a 55-80 Nikkor lens and a 75-300 Nikon lens with me as well. I ALWAYS have a backup battery and memory card with me too!

Feedback

To have Patience!
