Location
These is The Green River in Tukwila Washington, very near Seattle.Time
Magic Hour. The sun was sinking fast.Lighting
Nothing other than it was magic hour.Equipment
I used a Lumix g2 with a 14mm f/2.5 lens.Inspiration
I had often seen the river from the freeway and thought that there might be a picture worth taking there and when I found myself nearby was the sun was setting I decided to rush over and see it I could get a picture.Editing
No, I did not.In my camera bag
Not much, just a 14mm f/2.5 and a 45-150mm zoom lens.Feedback
Plan ahead. I had seen this river from the freeway and planned on going there when the light was right. I love using the basic of composition so I put the top of the water at the upper third. Plus refections always work well so I made sure to highlight them versus the sky. using basic compositional rules always helps me take my striking pictures.
