Behind The Lens

Location

I took this picture at the zoo in the city of Stara Zagora

Time

17.01.2014. at 3:00 pm

Lighting

the light was soft, cloudy weather! ideal conditions for good photography, I think.

Equipment

It was shot with a Canon 5D Mark 2 with the EF 70-200mm f / 2.8L by hand .

Inspiration

I wanted to capture the pose, eyes and the spirit of the bird

Editing

I used Adobe Photoshop CS5 , levels and curves , Crop and Gaussian Blur

In my camera bag

Canon EOS 5D Mark II , Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L ,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS , Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II , SIGMA 15-30mm F3.5-4.5 EX DG , Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5x Macro , Canon MT-24EX Macro Twin Lite , Canon Speedlite 580EX

Feedback

I think that patience is always rewarded .Besides patience and technique it is very important ,to the zoo should wear bright lens to shoot without seeing the grid of cells .
