Behind The Lens

Location

Cape Cod

Time

A few hours before sunset.

Lighting

No flash here. Just natural light.

Equipment

Nikon, hand held, 10-24 mm lens

Inspiration

I love trees as well as thinking outside of the box when determining perspective and point of view.

Editing

iPhoto Software-Sharpened focus, increased saturation as well as definition and adjusted shadows to boost the detail underneath the swing.

In my camera bag

Nikon D700, D90 and at least three lenses-Wide angle, long lens and macro lens as well as remote shutter, extra batteries and memory cards.

Feedback

I think offering a new perspective or fresh way of seeing everyday objects can make a picture more interesting.
