Behind The Lens
Location
This photograph was taken in a small town Lugana del Garda on the edge of Lake Garda Italy. The Rally Mille Miglia travels through there every year in May this was the 2012 race.Time
This was about 1 hour before sunset.Lighting
This is all natural light just enough light in the late evening sun to keep the shutter speed highEquipment
This was taken on a Nikon D7000 with a 70-200mm zoom lens. There was no tripod or flash used all hand held.Inspiration
This was one of many photos from that day the cars and light on that day was amazing. The classic cars and the drivers were the inspiration and I will be there again for the 2015 race.Editing
The post processing on this shot was almost all done in Nik Silver Efex Pro 2.0In my camera bag
I now have in my bag Nikon D610 50mm prime , 80mm Prime/Macro , 12 -24 mm , 28- 300mm and a FujiFilm x100.Feedback
1. Never stop looking even when you are not shooting train your eye the see the special moments in life and be ready when they happen. 2. Learn and practice with your equipment so that it is second nature so when the moment happens you have the technical know how to capture the image.
