Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at Meredith Park looking back over Lake Colac at Colac, Vic, Aus

Time

it was just after 11pm

Lighting

this was only lit by a full moon

Equipment

equipment i used was a Nikon d7000 with the kit lens 18-105 (@18mm-F5.6-30sec x about 117 photos shot in raw) a Velbon Sherpa 600R tripod and nikon cable release.

Inspiration

i have all was love this type of photography (and still learning) it was a beautiful clear/warm night called a good friend and decide to go out and this was one of the end results

Editing

i imported to Lightroom to slightly adjusted Exp,highlights,shadows,whites and blacks then exported all 117 photos to photoshop highlighted them all and change the blending mode to lighten then reimported the photo to Lightroom

In my camera bag

At this time i don't have much equipment; Nikon D7000 with kit lens 50mm F1.8D tripod cable release

Feedback

As i'm still learning myself i got on to net/youtube and did some research to check out how other photographers approached there work, and go out for a drive at day time and case out a few places that you would like to shoot then have a go at night and see what happens happy shooting :)
