Behind The Lens
Location
This year I decided to visit the French Riviera, Italian, Switzerland and the Great Lakes. At Tirano I picked the famous Bernina Express train to St. Moritz. The landscapes of the Alps viaducts, tunnels were absolutely spectacular.Time
During the morning about 10 am on 12 June 2014Lighting
I want to have lots of pictures from such beautiful place but it was very difficult to take photos because of the reflections in the windows of the train and the train speed. So I decided to put my Canon EOS 450D 18 / 200mm on automatic and touch the glass of the windows with the lens to reduce glare. I used a high speed and made several shots in a row. I got some photos without reflections although it was difficult due to the balance of the train but even so I was pleasedEquipment
Canon EOS 450D 18/200 lens Shutter speed 1/640 sec. No flash. Focal length: 18mm F. number 16 ISO Speed 800 No tripodInspiration
Without any doubt my love for pictures and the beautiful views, one after another...Editing
I just try to take off one or two reflections using the old Microsoft Digital Image 2006In my camera bag
The mentioned equipment and a tripod. Memory cards and two batteries.Feedback
I think the best way to avoid reflections is to touch the lens glass windows when traveling by train or bus but any idea is welcome. I had a stroke of luck! Excuse my bad english but I am from Portugal. Any correction would be appreciated! :-)
