Behind The Lens

Location

This is of the Petronas towers in Kuala Lumpur,

Time

Late afternoon going into early evening

Lighting

The sun sets behind this building when I was photographing it, in Kuala Lumpur the sky was a wonderful blue, and made the steel/glass structure stand out

Equipment

Nikon D90, wide angle lens, hand held

Inspiration

The Graphic nature of this building

Editing

Change it to Black and White from colour, and minor changes to the midtones.

In my camera bag

Nikon Kit, I have had evenrything from the D100, to D90, 3200, 3300 and just purchaed a D7200 which I have just taken some amazing volleyball shots with, lenses, too many assorted, but typically the 18-200 or 18-300 VR. A go pro, lots of memory cards, remote timer, cleaning kit, rain cape, ND filters

Feedback

I stayed in Kuala Lumpur for a few weeks, a lot longer than anticipated and visited the towers a few times, and saw potential at different times of the day, the colour change, shadows move, I prefer the earning evening as the sun has gone down and the sky is changing from a light blue and going darker, the building light start to come on, the sky goes a very dark clear blue, you can spend around 1-2 hours photograph the changing light, you will need a tripod as the light goes down.
