Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken on a casual bike ride, outside the town of Galapian, France.

Time

It was early afternoon, on a relatively mild summer day.

Lighting

Nothing unique here. A sunny afternoon with some helpful clouds.

Equipment

I used a Sony Alpha 350.

Inspiration

The rolling hill countryside was picturesque in all directions. The region of France is a capture in time, where small towns are separated by rolling hills, winding roads, and fields of agriculture. Sunflowers were prominent in the area, and while the fronts of the flowers had their obvious allure, I found the backs had a unique intrigue as well.

Editing

There is just some typical cropping and slight filtering through iPhoto software.

In my camera bag

As an amateur hobbyist, I usually just have my Sony Alpha 350, a tripod, three lenses (70-300, 50mm, and some standard lens that came with the camera.

Feedback

Take a billion pictures of everything. Some will surprise you.
