Behind The Lens
Location
At a lake near my home in New Iberia, Louisiana named Spanish Lake.Time
Early morning.Lighting
I like the early morning hours because of the fog.Equipment
I mostly use a Nikon D5100 camera and 135mm lens.Inspiration
I like being out in nature early and evenings.Editing
No post processing.In my camera bag
I have a Nikon D5100 camera, 50mm and 135mm lens, and a 400 mm Tokina lens. My favorite is the 135. It is fast enough so I can keep and distance and not frighten the wildlife.Feedback
Not really, just be there and enjoy being out in Nature.
