Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at a Volkswagen car show in Denver, Colorado.

Time

It was mid-day.

Lighting

It was a sunny day in May.

Equipment

I used a Sony Nex-6, handheld with a 16-50mm lens.

Inspiration

This was a huge car show with hundreds of car and vans on grass at what appeared to be a large park. I was wandering around the show and got hundreds of awesome images. This one was a standout, however, because it was all beat-up and rusty and had the creepy skull. Most others were polished and sparkling.

Editing

The only post=processing is some tweaking of the "adjustments" on Apple photos.I

In my camera bag

I carry a Sony Nex-6 and recently added a Sony a6000. The lenses I carry are a 60-50mm, 14mm, fish-eye and 55-200mm. I carry extra memory cards and batteries as well as a tiny tripod and a bean bag.

Feedback

An event like this car show was meant for photographers! While I do love car shows, I don't hesitate to stop my car and get out and take photos of parked cars out on the street. I often do that.
