Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at the Norwalk Reservoir in Ohio.

Time

I took this at about 8:30 PM. I had gone to the reservoir to try to get sunset shots reflected in the water. I was glad there was such a colorful sky.

Lighting

I didn't use any special lighting but the fading light of the sunset.

Equipment

I used a Nikon D3200 and my kit lens, the 18-55mm.

Inspiration

I wanted to get some reflections shots of a colorful sunset, so I went to the reservoir in a neighboring town.

Editing

I sharpened the photo and deepened the color.

In my camera bag

Besides my Nikon D3200 camera, I always have my kit lens, an 18-55mm, and my telephoto lens, a 75-300mm. I also have several SD cards and 2 extra batteries, a battery charger, cleaning kit, and lens filters.

Feedback

The best advice I can give is to keep going out to catch sunset shots, and go where there's a body of water that will reflect.
