Behind The Lens

Location

At a park beach off of the shores of Lake Michigan.

Time

Middle of the afternoon during the week in the spring.

Lighting

Lighting was natural and the perspective of the shot provided the shadow and contrast.

Equipment

Nikon 3100 with the stock lens.

Inspiration

I like taking shots of objects and this particular shot was taken at the ground level laying in the sand. The drift wood and broken tube looked very random in a natural setting. The lighthouse in the background is actaully a model for a playground. The shot makes it seem like an actual full lighthouse in the distance.

Editing

Yes. Added a standard filter through the site.

In my camera bag

Minimal equipment. I really like trying to maximize the features of a camera without adding more items.

Feedback

Push the capabilities of a camera and the lens. Try creative angles and be willing to find the simple for an outstanding composed shot.
