Behind The Lens

Location

Chicago Il. The Willis Tower, built as and still commonly referred to as Sears Tower, is a 108-story,

Time

Noon

Lighting

The lighting was somewhat harsh being at noon time. Dark on the side close to the tower with back lighting behind the subject.

Equipment

Nikon D3200 hand held

Inspiration

The view and the fact that you are over the edge of the building.

Editing

The seems in the glass were taken out and the brightness and contrast were adjusted in Photoshop

In my camera bag

Nikon D3300, 18-55 - 28-300, 60 macro, and 17 - 24 wide angle. Tripod and remote trigger.

Feedback

Try morning and evening light if possible.
