Behind The Lens

Location

I was doing a road trip accros the US in 2013 and around June, I drove through the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Amazing landscapes everywhere. A paradise for photographers and nature lovers.

Time

It was around 9PM after a one trek through the park

Lighting

All the colors of the rainbow can be found in this picture and that's what makes it so special for me. I really love watching this peaceful landscape.

Equipment

Canon 5D Mark II with a 24-105 lens from Canon. I used my tripod, a Vanguard Alta Pro 263AB 100 with an SBH100 head.

Inspiration

Just the beauty that I had in front of me. Sometimes you know that you want to keep a memory for ever but that you'll need a picture to explain that beauty to others

Editing

I used lightroom 5 to ad a bit more contrast in the lights. But otherwise there is not a lot of post-processing

In my camera bag

Canon 5D Mark II, Canon lenses 24-105, 50mm 1.4 and a 75-300. All of that with my ND Filters, my remote control and my tripod. Everything packed in a Mountainsmith Borealis bag.

Feedback

Just walk accros the park at dusk and you'll, for sur, have the chance to admire a similar landscape. Some days you can heaven get some mist floating and invade those mountains.
