Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the Cuyahoga National Park also no the Erie Ohio Canal Towpath.

Time

It was taken in the morning

Lighting

All natural lighting

Equipment

Nikon D60 with a Nikon 55 - 300 zoom lens

Inspiration

I was driving along the towpath looking for a spot to take nature photos this day. All the parking areas were overflowing and I could see thousands of people lines up along the tracks that ran along the towpath. I asked a park ranger what was good by on he told me the scenic railroad was running a steam engine that day. Thinking this was cool I found a parking spot ran up to the tracks and was able to capture this one photo.

Editing

Yes I turned it to greyscale and brought out the contrast

In my camera bag

When I took this I carried a Nikon d60 with an 18-55 Nikon lens and a 55-300 Nikon lens and a tripod. Now a days it’s the same lenses with a Nikon D3200

Feedback

Always be on the lookout for opportunities and ask someone in the crowd what is good by on
