Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Ponte de Lima, in Portugal. They have a really amazing dish called "Arroz de Sarrabulho" and I learned that they have pretty nice places to photograph as well!

Time

This was taken right after lunch, in that afternoon walk where you are too full to do anything, but still can't stop photographing!

Lighting

Well, nothing that special about the lighting, but the focus is rather different. I took this photo slightly sideways, so the focus line is tilted, which I love!

Equipment

Nikon D3200 with 55-300mm in this specific photo.

Inspiration

The amazing gardens in Ponte de Lima and the small botanic garden, being more specific.

Editing

Just some basic Lightroom editing.

In my camera bag

My Nikon D3200, a fully manual 58mm Helios 44-2, a Tamron 70-300mm and sometimes the kit lens, 18-55VRII

Feedback

Sometimes the most amazing shots come from the most mundane objects and moments!
