Behind The Lens

Location

On Canada day I went out on a glass roof boat tour in Toronto.

Time

Night time! 10pm-11pm.

Lighting

The lighting was generally good because of all the fireworks going off. The scene was bright and easy to focus on due to all the fireworks.

Equipment

Canon Rebel T3i 600D, no flash.

Inspiration

I had never shot fireworks before and I thought this night would be perfect for it, which it was.

Editing

No post-processing.

In my camera bag

My camera and both my lenses. My basic starter lens (18-55mm) and my telephoto lens (55m-250mm).

Feedback

Bring a tripod! It's not a must, but it will make life easier. Take lots of photos, you'll have lots to choose from when you're looking for the perfect shot.
