Location
This portrait of a bison was taken in the Northern part of the Yellowstone National Park in January 2017. Temperature was around 40°C.....Time
This is a morning shot, when the herd was digging in the snow for food.Lighting
Morning light before the sun hit hard allowed for good exposure of a dark subject against white snow.Equipment
Canon 7D Mark II + Canon EF100-400mm v2. Handheld.Inspiration
Tight portraits of wildlife with expressive eyes are my favorite subject.Editing
Hardly any post-processing.In my camera bag
