Behind The Lens

Location

Two Jack Lake in Banff, Canada

Time

Early morning about an hour after sunrise.

Lighting

The stillness of the lake and the cold crispness of the air made it easy to get a good shot in this beautiful location.

Equipment

D7100 with a small tripod.

Inspiration

The beauty of this area of Canada is just unsurpassed in North America. The mountains and wildlife abound and you feel like you are almost taking a step back in time.

Editing

Just a little bit of brightening around the foreground trees.

In my camera bag

I normally carry a small tripod, monopod, D70, and sometimes the D7100 as well. I also like to change things up and occasionally use my 35mm lens.

Feedback

Get there early, scout out the location, and set up before the light gets too bright.
