Behind The Lens

Location

Taken at the edge of Maroon Lake at the foot of Maroon Bells Peak in Aspen Colorado...

Time

At approximately 7:15am

Lighting

Maroon Bells gets it's name from the maroon color that happens across the peaks at sunrise... I shot this just as the light had started to peak...

Equipment

Taken with a Cannon Rebel EOS t5i, using a Tokina 11-16mm ultra-wide Pro lens, on a Manfrotto tripod using a Pixel wireless remote...

Inspiration

The beauty of Maroon Bells in well known, and I had attempted the shot a few days earlier but there was too much cloud cover and no sun ... I made the 2.5 hour trip to aspen a second time that week to capture the proper sunlight across the Bells..

Editing

This was three images merged in photomatix and then processed in Adobe Camera Raw, and Photoshop using NIK and Topaz plug-ins

In my camera bag

I have a large bag with camera, 4 lenses, tripod, crystal ball, and several flashlights and an external flash for light painting... Also a headlamp and colored gels

Feedback

Be persistent to get the shot you want... Travel, wait patiently, and go during interesting times such as during fall color change, etc
