Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on the Isle of Skye in the Scottish Highlands, on the side of a very narrow road.

Time

I believe this photo was taken in the early afternoon. My friends and I had just gotten completely obliterated in a downpour, and we were trying to warm up as the clouds began to dissipate.

Lighting

I wanted to red tones to really pop against the gray sky, so I brightened everything during post-processing.

Equipment

This was taken with my Canon PowerShot A3300 IS, no flash.

Inspiration

This beautiful highland cow became my best friend. I instantly fell in love. It looks like a Muppet.

Editing

Just a little lightening in Photoshop.

In my camera bag

On this trip, I was traveling very light and only had my point-and-shoot. Typically, I have my Nikon D5100, 2 lenses, & a rain shield.

Feedback

When you're driving somewhere and see something inspiring on the side of the road, stop! :)
