Behind The Lens

Location

This was a dead tree at the end of the road which contrasted nicely against the sunset backgrounds I saw. The photo can no longer be replicated as the tree has since been cut down.

Time

Took this about 5pm - could see the beautiful colours in the clouds outside the window and so rushed to grab the camera and headed straight down the road to find a spot to take this shot.

Lighting

No special effects to do with the lighting, I think I may have had this on auto mode (sacrilege, I know) ;)

Equipment

The shot was taken with a Pentax XG-1, kept still by placing it on top of a road sign :)

Inspiration

Always loved sunsets like many people do, the colours can be amazing and when combined with clouds, can fashion some of nature’s most inspiring views!

Editing

I used photoshop to do motive some of the contrast and colours effects, but overall the image is fairly true to what I saw.

In my camera bag

Don’t normally carry a bag :) just the camera on a strap and a few bits maybe in my pockets!

Feedback

When you see an opportunity to take an amazing image, make sure you take it!
