Behind The Lens

Location

This image was made in Utah, USA. We were driving away from Bryce Canyon and came across this scene in front of a local hotel.

Time

This shot was made mid afternoon during the month of February.

Lighting

A bit of winter side lighting just gives the appearance of a small shadow.

Equipment

This image was made with a Canon 5D MKII with 24-105 mm lens at 24mm. F11 / 1/15 sec / ISO 100 / tripod

Inspiration

For me the vehicles not only had an interesting colour palette but I particularly liked the way they stood out against the blue sky and areas of snow. I thought the front bumper looked nice but I wanted to get in close and capture that as the main point of focus.

Editing

No specific post processing was required with this image.

In my camera bag

I have 2 Canon bodies (5D MKII & 5DsR) along with a range of lenses from 100mm macro to 100-400 zoom.
