Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from the road side at Long Beach outside Tofino on Vancouver Island.

Time

It was taken around 5:00 p.m. on my way home from work.

Lighting

No special lighting used.

Equipment

I was using a Nikon D90 with an 18 to 105 lens

Inspiration

The lighting looked excellent and with a few people around for subject matter, I just had to stop and get a few shots.

Editing

I did use some Local Tone Mapping and some contrast.

In my camera bag

Always carry Nikon D90, 18 to 55 and 70 to 300 lens

Feedback

Carry a camera and always be ready.
