Behind The Lens

Location

Eilean Donan Castle, Scotland

Time

Mid-afternoon

Lighting

There was a storm looming and we were experiencing the last bits of sunlight. The atmosphere was eerie.

Equipment

Canon PowerShot A3300 IS

Inspiration

Everything about Scotland felt magical. This castle in particular was on my must-see list for a very long time, and it did not disappoint. The encroaching storm was inspiration enough to hurry up and take photos!

Editing

I did some minor fiddling with contrast and brightness in Photoshop.

In my camera bag

This was a weekend trip and I packed light. I only had a point-and-shoot...and I don't think it had a bag! Generally though, I have my Nikon D-5100, lens cleaners, batteries, and rain shields.

Feedback

This photo was made by the composition. The color-to-gray ratio worked out really well, and the bright green is as much a focal point as the castle.
