Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the "Sierra Taraumara", in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. This in one of the tens of canyons there are over there.

Time

Was in the morning, around 11-12:00; I was traveling on this street close because some landslide and i stop to see this amazing view.

Lighting

That day the clouds were moving fast in the sky and inside the canyon and the light was changing fast too. I was there observing and decide if was better take the photo while the sun was covered by the clouds or no. I chose this solution because was the best one to stand out all the special features of this view.

Equipment

I used a Nikon D800 with a 16-85 f 3.5.

Inspiration

The view itself inspired me. Was one of my first time at a canyon so, it was a new point of view form me. Watching that slit in the earth gave my an incredible emotion.

Editing

I don't like post-processing, I like take photos with my eyes and my camera, not with a computer.

In my camera bag

Because I'm traveling around the world hitch-hiking and I don't have a fixed house I can't bring with me a lot of equipment. I use a Nikon D800 with a 16-85 f3.5 for everyhting and a 300mm f2.8 whit a 2x teleconverter and a tripod for wildlife.

Feedback

Go out and let the world inspire you.
