Behind The Lens

Location

I took this shot on Stockton Beach New South Wales Australia

Time

I was lucky enough to wake early one morning and I wandered over to the beach to try and get a nice morning shot. It was probably about 0630 maybe 0700 in the morning.

Lighting

The morning sun can do a lot for a good picture. It can create something that you didn't really mean to get. I was more than happy how the light made my shot.

Equipment

I think this shot was taken on my iPhone 5. No flash and no tripod. I layers down on the sand and got acquainted with the shell.

Inspiration

As I walked along the sand looking for something interesting to shoot I noticed the scattered shells along the shore line. I find shells to be peaceful. And with a perfectly formed shell like this one it was easy to know what to shoot.

Editing

I think I may have touched the colour but I didn't have to do a lot to this as the time of day provided a lot of the beauty.

In my camera bag

These days I have a Nikon D3200 with a few different lens and I have my iPhone still which I use when I need a quick shot.

Feedback

Be prepared to look around and let your mind run. I love it. Be patient. It will come to you.
