Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo of Maroon Bells near Aspen, Colorado. It's the most photographed spot in the entire state, even though it's not easy to get to!

Time

This shot was taken mid morning.

Lighting

The sky was a little overcast, so it was perfect for this shot.

Equipment

This shot was taken with my Nikon D7100 and 18-200 lens.

Inspiration

I'd lived in Colorado for a few years but never made it to Maroon Bells. It was always a spot I wanted to photograph and I finally got the chance to.

Editing

I always shoot RAW so I bumped up the saturation a little so the vivid colors pop like I remembered.

In my camera bag

I usually just carry a camera body, 1 or 2 lenses and a tripod. That's all you need.

Feedback

Get out and shoot!
