Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at the Skagit Valley in Washington USA.

Time

7:29 PM. ( late evening)

Lighting

I was waiting for the evening calm sun light.

Equipment

I used tripot. Nikon D3100. 18mm-200mm lens

Inspiration

I took many colours of tulips already in that day. I was waiting for the evening sun light and at 6:30 pm, people started to leave the field. When people left, only some photographers were there. I was watching other photographers how to set the angles to take, so I checked out some angles after that I chose not to take it from right front. I tried it from 30 degrees to 150 degrees. This is one of them. I was inspired by the full of yellow colour with spring spirits. Smell of flowers and its soil, a rich land to embrace nature.

Editing

I just made it little bit darker.

In my camera bag

My camera and a couple of lens and filters. Tripod.

Feedback

When we are in the field, time is limited. Finding a good location and set the camera to get ready quickly is better. I check the map and other photographer's photos in the area through internet before I go. Check the sun light and keep shooting with different aperture, shutter speed as well as auto setting. Eventually you'll find which angles and camera setting you like the most after some trial shots.
