Behind The Lens

Location

Downtown Chicago

Time

1am

Lighting

I wish I had kept the flare out of the shot!

Equipment

Canon 5dmkiii Canon ef: 14mm f2.8 II 24-70 2.8 II 70-200 2.8 II

Inspiration

I always look up at night and in cities. As soon as I saw these building I left the group I was with and dialed in my settings. They were calling for me to catch up but I ignored them and am glad I did.

Editing

Black and white, maybe some luminance and sharpness increase. Very minimal. The blue version of this is right out of the camera, slight sharpness and of course lens corrections.

In my camera bag

The aforementioned lenses, one 9 stop ND filter, batteries.

Feedback

Go into different parts of your home town. Spend time learning what looks good there and experimenting. Then when you travel, things like this pop out at you.
