Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in Strasbourg, such a lovely city full of old buildings with an added canal circling the center of the city! Truly a must visit destination.

Time

It was around 4-4.30pm on a winters day so it was just after sunset, which gave it such a nice cold feeling and clear skies which helped create that wonderful reflection in the water,

Lighting

I wanted this shot to show exactly what i saw, so i used ISO 800 and a wide aperture. I was aiming to get the right amount of light in to keep it realistic, but also keep the cold winter tones.

Equipment

All i had was my trusty Nikon D3100 and the kit lens (18-55mm).

Inspiration

To be honest it was a spur of the moment...moment? i was just exploring, taking in the city as much as i could and came across this beautiful scene. It was one of those moments you know its gonna be a keeper!

Editing

Well this photo was from when i wasn't very good at editing, so it was just the basic stuff like contrast brightness, ect ect

In my camera bag

Back then? just my camera! But now? I have; 50mm f1.8 75-300mm tamron with macro settings 18-55mm kit lens A wide angle macro attachment A ring flash Fairy lights Neon Lights Two Mini tripods one Large Monopod/tripod (aka The Monotripod) A CD (rainbow reflections) An empty bulb A small glass jar Basic Camera Cleaning equipment Two Spare cards A reflector and various others bits on bobs depending on the shoot

Feedback

Take as many photos as you can, and try and get those angles! Take a look where everyone else is taking their photos, and go find a better spot you'll find your photos will do a lot better when they are showing off a view that not many have seen!
