Behind The Lens

Location

Williamsburg, VA

Time

Mid Morning

Lighting

A cloudy day so that there was fairly diffused light.

Equipment

Nikon D90 and Nikon 60 mm.

Inspiration

I liked the combination of colors and textures. This was exactly as I found it. In addition, I thought the lock was interesting because of its age and the mystery about what it might be protecting.

Editing

None

In my camera bag

Nikon D800, Nikon 24-70mm, Nikon 14-24 mm

Feedback

Part of my goal for the day was to look at some of the details of the buildings, fences and hardware that was representative of the era that Williamsburg represents. My usual approach is to spend a lot of time exploring the site of interest and taking images from a number of perspectives and angles. I probably did not see much of Williamsburg, but came home with numerous interesting images.
