Location
On the street in from of my office.Time
It was just before the sun dropped below the horizon for the evening.Lighting
Magic hour: The photographer's friend!Equipment
A lumix g2 and a 14mm f/2.5 lens.Inspiration
I keep my camera with me most of the time and try to take advantage of photo opportunities whenever they arise. I saw this scene outside my office day as I was leaving for the day. I saw that nice long shadow, the bike silhouette and the painted bike on the ground and knew there was a picture there. Plus there are two buildings across the street and they were funneling the light into a kind of spot light on the scene.Editing
No, I don't think so. I'm not much of a tech guy. I don't know how to use photoshop or anything. So anything I do in post is limited to things like instagram filters. So, there is almost never any post processing in my pictures.In my camera bag
Just two lenses: a 14mm f/2.5 and a 45-150mm zoom lens.Feedback
The best advice is the keep your antenna up for seeing pictures at anytime and anywhere. Recognize when all of the elements are there for a good picture to happen.
