Behind The Lens

Location

I woke up one morning to a cold fog outside, but the sun was starting to break it up. I thought it was beautiful, so grabbed my camera, opened my top, bedroom window and took the shot. That fog bank os obscurint the Ohio River and rolling hills of KY.

Time

Sunrise

Lighting

The scene did all the work. The sun was at perfect angle. I did slightly enhance red to pop the stop sign.

Equipment

Arms braced on my window. I think that I grabbed my Kodak all in one. It was ready and that fog was leaving.

Inspiration

It was so beautiful. The tree is not covered in snow, it is these huge frost crystals that up close looked like someone stuck extra large snow flakes all over it.

Editing

As I said before, the shot took itself. I just tried to pop the red on the stop sign. Maybe slight sharpening. Those days I knew nothing about processing after.

In my camera bag

Nikon D3200, filters, a standard zoom lens.

Feedback

I got so lucky with this shot. Since then I always have a camera ready.
