Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on the western shore of St. Crowd in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Time

Taken just at sunset at the beach "Country Club"

Lighting

The silhouette of the boy playing on the rocks became the centerpiece for this photo, with just enough light to make him out.

Equipment

Taken with an Olympus E-510 with no tripod or flash.

Inspiration

The island itself was enough inspiration for the many photos I got there.

Editing

There was a little bit of post processing just to really highlight those beautiful oranges and yellows

In my camera bag

At the moment I carry my Nikon D610, a small tripod, a 50 mm prime lense and a 35mm-72mm lens, and of course a remote trigger

Feedback

Sour of the moment photographs are key!
