Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken from a second story window, near Lake Washington, in Seattle Washington, as the sun was setting in the summer evening.

Time

I don't often see the sunsets at home. Why? Because I don't look. This was different. I looked out an saw the sun beginning to descend from the clouds. As I kept watching the rays began to appear above the clouds. I went to grab the camera and found, when I returned this glorious shot as the sun continued its descent. .

Lighting

Nature provided most of lighting for this photo. I merely adjusted the iso to grab what the lens could capture from the rays.

Equipment

This was shot with a Canon 30D with a 200 zoom lens

Inspiration

Sunsets that offer rays of the sun are rare for me to see. As the sky began to illuminate this phenomenon, well, I had to get the camera and hve the lens capture what I was experiencing

Editing

Did not use at the time of this photo

In my camera bag

Charged batteries, a cloth to wipe the lens, SD cards

Feedback

Look out and look up at special times of the day when unique opportunities are unveiled
