Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in Wilhelmina State Park in Arkansas

Time

Um, it was night time? :-)

Lighting

Um, the moon was bright?

Equipment

This was taken from a tripod using a Canon R10 and EF 300mm F4L lens using a Canon RP to EF adapter

Inspiration

We were camping and playing with night photography

Editing

This was massaged a bit 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

(set the metering to "spot" and make sure the moon is in the center of the shot, the reset is easy)
