Timing is everything. Great job getting him so perfectly with the slow shutter.

Location
This was taken on my back deck. I feed the birds and this cute guy was brave enough to come out during a storm.Time
This was most likely taken early afternoon.Lighting
To be quite honest I know very little about photography and nothing about lighting. I'm sorry to be so boring!Equipment
I use a Nikon Coolpix L830 that my husband bought for me for Mother's Day a few years ago. I would really like something better but will have to wait until finances will allow it.Inspiration
I will sit by the window and wait for different critters to come eat. This little guy was all covered with snow and I thought this was so cute. I take photos that interest me. I love taking wildlife photos but will take photos of anything that is unusual and interesting. My husband tells me I have a good eye for the unusual although I wish I had additional training to take better photos.Editing
I don't think I did any post-processing but when I do, I use Photomatix Pro.In my camera bag
The only thing I have in my bag is my camera and extra batteries.Feedback
I really don't plan for anything. I just go out and start shooting. Patience is the only thing I can recommend. This is something I have plenty of. I have to take many photos of a subject before I get just the right one that I like.
