Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on the edge of the Western Australian Nullarbor

Time

It was about 3 pm as a storm was about to break

Lighting

It was a very big storm and it was even on state radio ..it did flood the house i was staying in and i was in and out of the vehicle quickly due to lightning strikes

Equipment

Canon 5D mk2 and Canon 24 x70 mm 2.8L lens no flash and a tripod

Inspiration

The storm and the light inspired me top go get it as it was only 1 km from the house

Editing

3 images AEB and a lot of filter work to keep the light so it remained true and to help with the loss of depth from any HDR work

In my camera bag

2 Canon 5d Mk 2 Canon 24 x 70 2.8L and 70 x 200 2.8L plus 2x extender and remotes on both cameras....all the associated cleaning gear

Feedback

Be quick as its over like a donkeys gallop..very quickly
