Behind The Lens
Location
This was from a house rental in Varena, Italy on Lake Como. In April it rains frequently - providing wonderful cloud formations and occasionally, incredible sunsets. The 'low' area between the mountains is the town of Menaggio. The ferry departed from just to the right of the frame.Time
The photo was taken around 7:30 pm.Lighting
The sunset and reflections immediately caught my eye! The lighting did not last long!Equipment
This was an iPhone capture - in RAW.Inspiration
The area of Lake Como is an incredible photographer's delight! The light changes frequently, the sky changes constantly!Editing
The post-processing was minimal. There was a little bit of contrast and cropping applied.In my camera bag
I almost always have my iPhone --and when am out and about with my camera, I'll have a Nikon Z7ii with various lens. The most common is my 24-200mm f/4-6.3.Feedback
First, don't be afraid to use your iPhone! Secondly, even when you have your camera, try capturing a few images with your iPhone. It not only gives you some basis for what you saw, but what time and where it was!! Also, I frequently use adapters with vintage lenses. The iPhone helps me 'remember' what lens combo I used!
