Behind The Lens

Location

It was somewhere in New Era, Michigan

Time

Mid afternoon i believe

Lighting

It was a beautiful spring day!

Equipment

I was using a Canon XT with a beat up 50mm 1.8 and it was actually taken from the sun roof of a moving SUV! :)

Inspiration

A friend an I had taken advantage of an absurdly warm stretch of days in early spring and were coming back from Lake Michigan when we came across this tree on a rural road somewhere around New Era, Michigan. It had dozens of shoes of all shapes and sizes thrown throughout it's branches.

Editing

Just some basic color adjustments.

In my camera bag

My canon and my 50 1.8

Feedback

the 50 1.8 makes some amazing bokeh. Don't be afraid of the shallow focus range, it's worth it.
