Behind The Lens

Location

Driving along Highway 287 in Wyoming when I saw the Grand Tetons rising up to the west. The lake was calm so the mirror image was striking. I stopped and took several photos along the bank.

Time

It was a beautiful day in May around 11 AM.

Lighting

Even though it was mid-morning, the sun was not glaring, so the natural light worked out fine for this shot.

Equipment

This was shot with a Canon EOS Rebel T3 - no special lens or filter, no tripod or other equipment.

Inspiration

I love beautiful scenery and natural landscaping. I can almost always find something in the great outdoors to inspire me.

Editing

I am not yet proficient with Photoshop or other post-processing software so I only changed the brightness and contrast slightly to make the image sharp and clear.

In my camera bag

I always have my Canon EOS Rebel T3 with my Tamron 18 - 270 mm lens. I usually carry my 55 mm as well.

Feedback

No.
