Behind The Lens

Location

Veteran's Cemetery, Bow, NH

Time

1:00pm

Lighting

It was Veteran's Day and a beautiful Fall Day in New England

Equipment

Nikon D3200

Inspiration

My husband's brother, who served in the Vietnam War, was laid to rest in this cemetery. We visited his grave for the first time and I was so impressed with the facility and that every grave had a flag. We learned that fresh pine wreaths are hung on every headstone during the month of December.

Editing

Yes in Adobe Lightroom. I did crop and adjust exposure as well as clarity and vibrance adjustments.

In my camera bag

I use Nikon gear and started with D3200 with 2 kit lenses and recently purchased a D750 with 3 prime lenses.

Feedback

I always try to take shots from several different angles and perspectives, even lying on the ground to get the perspective I want. I also try different ISO and fstop and aperture if I have time.
