Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the end of summer at Cultus Lake In British Columbia Canada, I had been laying on a blanket by the water and noticed this leaf, thought oh another get down low photo , reminds me of a beach umbrella

Time

This was taken around 3ish in the afternoon , sun coming over the lake

Lighting

I had to put my UV filter on as the sun was a bit bright on the eyes

Equipment

Canon t4i, no flash , the ground as my tripod

Inspiration

After taking alot of photos of the kids in the lake and family on the beach , It was nice to see some nature so close by

Editing

I did some contrast and exposure work and the blurred the edges a bit

In my camera bag

Canon cameras , lenses ,tripod ,mono pod , flash, and filters, oh and a 2 plastic bags just in case it rains

Feedback

Like I have said before get down low ,sometimes you have to lay down the get a big shot
