Behind The Lens

Location

The southern edge of the Badlands in South Dakota

Time

Evening

Lighting

Lightning is fun to try to shoot but always remember to be safe.

Equipment

Canon 5D MII 18-200 tameron lens, remote shutter, tripod

Inspiration

I wanted to shoot a storm in the badlands. In order to get to a place with a view and a storm we did have to do a little storm tracking. Luckily we were able to get to this spot as the storm rolled in. I set up the tripod and let the shutter click until the weather became dangerous and we crawled back off the cliff.

Editing

minimal post processing in lightroom.

In my camera bag

70-200 Lens, 18-200 lens, speedlight, remote shutter,

Feedback

Understand that nature is a beast and it doesn't care about you. Respect the environment and educate yourself before attempting to shoot in the elements. If you are smart about it you can get the shot, but do not thing you are invincible.
