Behind The Lens

Location

Taken in Perth Western Australia

Time

Just before sunset

Lighting

The lighting was all natural & fairly bright

Equipment

Taken with Olympus OMD EM-1 with M Zuiko 12-50 kit lens @ 12mm no flash required using the wifi setting on a Vanguard Espod CX 204AGH tripod

Inspiration

There was a fire further up the coast & the smoke haze added a certain flair to the city skyline

Editing

Edited in snapseed for the first time so just having some fun with the app for the first time

In my camera bag

My bag is totally Olympus with the EM1 body 12-50,40-150 & 70-300 M Zuiko lenses plus an array of filters a mono pole @ tripod

Feedback

This was a bit of a lucky day but we all look to the sky's for clouds. I also look for smoke haze as it gives a different light and perspective on subjects.
