Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in Washago Ontario Canada at the Black River. Juvenile Trumpeter Swan.

Time

The time was around 2:20 pm

Lighting

It was a sunny day, I used a tulip lens hood and adjusted the lighting.

Equipment

I used a Canon 70D camera with a 70-300 zoom lens.

Inspiration

Looking down on the swan the pink in it’s beautiful beak showed up so well against its white feathers.

Editing

I did sharpen slightly, denoised slightly and added a bit of contrast.

In my camera bag

Camera, 70-300 zoom, 70-400 telephoto lens, macro lens and backup battery. Lens cleaner and I always a tripod in the car.

Feedback

I took this shot free hand so you need a steady hand, the sun was above me and slightly behind me. Be aware of your surroundings and how the light is hitting your subject.
