Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Seattle on Lake Washington Boulevard in front of a garage not too far from the road.

Time

It was during my lunch break. The weather was so beautiful that day and I needed to get out of the office to enjoy the weather. I was driving down Lake Washington Boulevard looking for a place to park, when I looked out of the passenger side of the car and saw the contrast of colors between the garage and the moped. Since there was no one behind me, I stopped in the middle of the road to capture this moment.

Lighting

I wanted to bring out the contrast in colors and the natural light from the sun was just right. I couldn't let this moment pass me by.

Equipment

The only equipment I had that day was my Sony RX100 M2. I often carry it with me when I want to be discreet in taking photos. I can just take it out of my pocket, take the shot and move on,

Inspiration

The contrast in colors and the sun brought out the beauty and radiance of the winter green moped in front of the striped red garage door. Plus I've always wanted a moped.

Editing

I used Snapseed to straighten and to slightly tune the image.

In my camera bag

I normally carry a sunpack tripod, my D5100 and a Sony RX100 M2.

Feedback

Carpe Diem! Seize the moment. Always have a camera with you. Never let a photographic moment pass you by. Seek to find beauty in everything.
