Congratulations on your Award!

Behind The Lens

Location

There is an "Open Space" park near my house in suburban NJ.

Time

Middle of the morning, after a winter storm the night before......cold, wet and windy as you can see by all the branches in the snow.

Lighting

Lighting is a constant challenge for me. I travel a lot and photograph outside most of the time and as I said before it's so much about having that camera with you when you see incredible natural lighting.

Equipment

I used a Canon EOS T2I and an 80-200 lens, handheld.

Inspiration

I often feel I am not in the right place at the right time when it comes to lighting. (And it is SO about lighting) I also am not a great fan of winter. But this particular morning, I woke up to a beautiful, soupy fog that was enveloping everything. I grabbed my camera and jumped into my car, driving around looking for shrouded landscapes. I think I still had my PJs on under my winter coat.

Editing

No

In my camera bag

I usually travel pretty light. My SLR, a few lenses, my battery charger and a good back up point and shoot.

Feedback

I think timing (lighting) is all important. Also, notice and be aware of EVERYTHING! Look at things from all angles and views. And, try to keep your camera with you whenever you can, which is something I have to get even better about doing. You just never know when that one perfect shot will be out there!
