Behind The Lens

Location

This is a composite photo.... The tree was taken in St. Louis Missouri, the landscape is in rural Missouri, at my parents property.

Time

This was taken (the landscape portion) in the late afternoon on a stormy day.

Lighting

I liked the late afternoon lighting on the field.... accompanied by the golden tree.

Equipment

Canon DSLR..... nothing fancy.

Inspiration

I love the late afternoon and the stormy sky, so I shot the base photo then. Later I added the tree as a fitting addition to the golden scene.

Editing

All of my work is about post-processing. The tree was originally a silver tree (shot taken at the St. Louis Art Museum lawn). I changed it to gold and twisted the branches to create a more magical, unrealistic tree.

In my camera bag

I always have a point & shoot.... not much else. An extra battery is good to have.

Feedback

Well since this is really two captures combined I would advise any one to follow their muse.
