Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was shot on my trip to Bangalore, India by Train. This has been clicked while the train was in motion and was about to halt on next station. This lake is known for its unique landscape around it and it has been maintained very well by the authorities. I am self taught photographer and this was also one of my those lucky & proud shots which I cherish always.

Time

It was a usual afternoon and it was sunny with clouds which made the frame all the more dramatic.

Lighting

The natural sunlight is the best form of light for any photograph as it would have the crisp details & depth. The noon sunlight was apt for this photo.

Equipment

This has been clicked in my early days of photography when I used to a have a EOS Canon 1000 D (18-55mm lens) and it was clicked hand-held. However, thanks to my friend who held my collar from behind while I was clicking this photo at the open door of the train. It was really an adventurous, yet risky shot.

Inspiration

I have always loved HDRs, clouds, water & reflections of objects in water. This place was the combination of all that I fancy capturing.

Editing

This is an HDR image, so post processing was involved to bring in more depth and all the details.

In my camera bag

I have started learning from EOS Canon 1000 D with 18-55 mm lens which made me comfortable to explore my creativity and learn. I have Canon 6D Mark II with EF14mm f/2.8L II USM, 50mm lens & EF24-105mm f/4L IS II USM, a tripod.

Feedback

This photo was a very sudden idea to click and I was ready with all my settings & knew how I want my frame to be. So, I would recommend to shoot in manual and be ready with all the settings on your camera (Note: You don't need an expensive camera to create photos like these). Just need the aesthetic sense & creativity, rest will follow. Cheers, Ashish (AB Pixels)
