Behind The Lens

Location

Nauvoo Illinois on a ice packed Mississippi river

Time

Taken at sunset

Lighting

The light is all natural.

Equipment

Canon Rebel T3i with a 70-300mm lens, hand held

Inspiration

I was out shooting the sunsetting on the river when this guy showed up launched his kayak so I took several shots of him. When he came in he said he was just given this and could not wait to try it out. I showed him the pictures, asked if he was okay with me using them to which he agreed, I then told him I would send him a photo of this and he was very happy.

Editing

It is cropped and probably I fixed the horizon.

In my camera bag

Canon RebelT3i Rebel T5, 10-18mm wide, 18-55mm normal, 70-300 zoom, lens ball, Tripod, filters
