The lighting as natural it produces amazing colours and this is what makes this image, I tried it in monochrome and it had no presence at all.Equipment
Canon DSLR and a wide angle zoom.Inspiration
Who couldn't resist the colours and the lighting, I simply had to capture this.Editing
The ac dual image was a nightmare to capture. I am not a fan of HDR and the difference between the bright areas and there dark areas was far too wide to capture in one image. I therefore used the bracketing setting on my camera and took five photographs each with a different exposure. I opened all the images in photoshop and using several layer masks I selected the image with the best lighting for each area of the image, making one photograph.In my camera bag
Typically, when walking I try to travel light with one camera body, a short zoom and a spare battery.Feedback
Don't be put off by strange and difficult lighting situations. Photography is defined as the capture of light. Some excellent images come out of experimenting, particularly if taken contra jour.
