Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Lashio Hot Spar, Northern Shan State, Myanmar. I was born in Lashio. Lashio hot spar is very famous in winter here and is a good place to visit.

Time

Ah Ha, it was only a snap shop and I did not remember what the date was. But It might be in winter here November, December, January or February. It's about 5pm in the evening.

Lighting

I am amateur. I am a natural light photographer. I don't want to use artificial light sources as much as possible. But I knew later a photographer can take photo with any light source. But I took this photo only natural light. On the other hand I can't afford to buy camera gears. Even now, I have only one dslr, one standard lens, one prime lens and one zoom lens which are not expensive.

Equipment

I used only phone camera at that moment. Huawei C8812 China CDMA Phone camera, I think it has 3Megapixel. At that time, I did not have any tripod so I used bamboo yard which covers the lake.

Inspiration

To be honest, I went to hot spar to take a bath. At that time Oh, it was evening and the sunset was very beautiful. I liked the scene very much and I got a plan to take photo, but I had no camera. Suddenly I got an idea to take this photo with phone. I made it.

Editing

Yes, I oftenly use photoshop. But for this photo, I only reduce the size because in my town the internet connection is so bad. I can't upload the file size greater than 200KB.

In my camera bag

To be honest, I can't afford to buy great cameras (for example full frame camera) and luxury lenses since my earning is less. But I tried to get one DSLR. In my bag, I put Canon 60D camera, 18-55mm ISII standard lens for landscape photos, 50mm prime lens and 75-300mm zoom lens. My friend gave that zoom lens to me. That is all. I wanted to get wide angle lens. All my lenses are Canon brand lenses.

Feedback

My country, Myanmar has a lot of beautiful scenes. I want to visit other countries for photographing and I want you all to come and visit to my land. Sorry for my English. I am not very good at English.
