Behind The Lens

Location

this was taken in a park in Rusk Texas

Time

it would have been early afternoon

Lighting

it was a cloudless day, but the stairs were well shaded by trees so lighting was somewhat muted

Equipment

this was shot with a Canon RP and 24-240mm lens

Inspiration

we were camping in the area and just out exploring - there is a wooden walkbridge in the park that made the list of attractions (it is pretty cool)

Editing

this was massaged pretty heavily using lightroom

In my camera bag

These days my 'walk about' setup is a Canon RP Mirrorless with a 24-240mm lens, but I'll also carry a 5D Mk III with any number of lenses if I'm looking to shoot something specific. I do have a couple of crop sensor bodies if I want a bit more reach, the extra magnification from the 1.6 crop factor helps there. I'm usually looking for cool things at random while traveling, so I often don't plan shots beforehand - I'm a pretty impromptu/opportunistic photographer. I've found I spend the most time with a 16-35mm wide angle, various prime lenses, or some sort of zoom depending on what I'm shooting. I also tend to use super-zooms a lot so I don't have to changes lenses out in the open.

Feedback

I usually check sights like Bridgehunter, Atlas Obscura, and Roadside America to see what might be around and interesting
