Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Alaska... on a drive between Anchorage and Valdez... It's difficult not to continually stop and take photographs there.. so much natural beauty.

Time

This was taken during the afternoon...

Lighting

No, nothing at all... this lighting was all natural Mother Nature...

Equipment

Nikon D700... 18-135 mm lens... no other equipment was involved..

Inspiration

It was my first trip to Alaska, and I was in awe of the beauty all around me... but this spot in particular drew me in.. there was just something special about the scene, the reflections, the symmetry...

Editing

None was needed..

In my camera bag

Nikons... a couple of different camera bodies, and several lenses... sometimes a tripod...

Feedback

Keep traveling and looking around...
