Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken at "Old Smoky Moonshine" in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

Time

I was spending my birthday weekend in Gatlinburg with my girlfriend and that night we were out walking around. She had never seen moonshine before so we went into the store. It was about 9:00 at night.

Lighting

The lighting inside the store was made to look like like that of an old cabin and had a nice amber glow to everything, this made the red cherries in the moonshine stand up the most.

Equipment

I used an Olympus E-300, my lens was 11.0-22.0mm f/3.5, ISO 100, Focal length 18mm with exposure of 1/6 sec at f/5.6

Inspiration

I wanted to catch the red cherry moonshine and how it stood out among the many jars of shine in the store, along the vast amounts of shine. The wooden texture had that nice touch made one feel they were up in the mountains.

Editing

No post-processing was done on this picture

In my camera bag

I use to carry my Olympus E-300 with me everywhere I went, but have since upgraded to a Canon 60D. I make sure to carry multiple lens because I never know what I'll need as I travel.

Feedback

The best advice that I received was to "Always be ready, because you never know when that next shot is going to appear."
