Behind The Lens

Location
This photo was taken from the hill in back of our house in Klamath Falls, Oregon.
Time
It was a cold morning, but seeing the sun rise from our bedroom window, I knew I needed to trudge up the hill about 6am and try to snap whatever the sunrise would capture. This is what I snapped.
Lighting
I love sunrises, and sunsets. Southern Oregon has amazing both. I am an novice to photography, but knew the sun rising behind the tree, and shining on the grass below would make for some amazing lighting.
Equipment
I can't remember what camera I shot this with, but use a Canon 60D. No flash, or tripod was used, just the natural light.
Inspiration
I love my area of Southern Oregon, and love to show it off. I thought this picture would show how beautiful it is.
Editing
I always shoot raw, and transfer it jpeg via Lightroom. I don't think I did any other processing of this picture other than maybe adjusting the exposure up a little.
In my camera bag
Always carry my 10-22 Canon Wide Angle Zoom lens. It takes amazing landscape pictures.
Feedback
Take your time, go to the sun, don't wait for it to come to you. If you are a hunter, you know about having patience for the game to come to you. I'm not a hunter, but find that my passion for landscape photography is pretty much the same.
