Location
The photo was taken in London the day after we completed a cruise around the British Isles.Time
The photo was taken at 1:00 PM.Lighting
The day was overcast but bright. It made the clouds stand out.Equipment
I used a Canon EOS 5D Mark III 28 mm f/10 1/800 sec ISO 100 EXP -0.3.Inspiration
My wife and I were walking by the river, the clouds and the sky made the scene interesting. The view of the Tower Bridge and the background with the Tower of London just said "Capture"Editing
Yes. I wanted to enhance the clouds and used Adobe Photo Shop to highlight the cloudsIn my camera bag
I always carry my Canon 5D Mark III Body with the EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Zoom lens. I have an EF 50mm f/1.4 lens for some Landscape photos. EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM for Landscape and wildlife photos as well as sports (Soccer, Football, and Basketball). EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM is great for sports events. EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM for portraits, Christmas photos, and other holiday photos. I carry a GPS receiver GP-E2 unit to record the locations of the photos and an Arsenal smart camera assistant for landscape photos. I review the settings that Arsenal uses to better understand what settings to use when I am taking landscape photos. I carry a Canon Speedlite 580EX II for flash photography. I have a Phottix Ares kit for portrait photos. For taking photos of small objects (figurines, art objects, and trophies) I have a Lume Cube LC Panel 112. I have an EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM lens for wildlife photos.Feedback
Traveling in the UK you will experience overcast skies and clear days. Wait for the days when there is no rain and not foggy. The London skyline is diverse and you can get a good view from the Eye or just walk along the river. The Tower Bridge is a good photo from either end.
