Behind The Lens

Location

I took this on my way to work, we pulled into a passing place on a narrow country road, I asked my co worker to hold on whilst I quickly framed and took the shot.

Time

Early morning about 7am

Lighting

It was an abnormal English summer morning, blue skies and not very many clouds.

Equipment

For this shot I used my Nokia Lumia 1020 41mp mobile phone hand held from the car.

Inspiration

Pure chance, right time, right place, right subject.

Editing

I shot this in colour and then edited in Lumia Creative Studio on the phone to crop, and colour pop.

In my camera bag

Edit: The 400D is now dead she has now been replaced by a nice new EOS 80D with 18-135mm lens also in my bag is 80-200, 100-300, 50mm f1.8 prime. Intervelometer, lens hoods, spare battery's, lens cloth, pen, note pad, bin liner, cable.

Feedback

Just get out there as much as you can and shoot as much as you can. Also remember that the best camera you have, is the one that you have with you. I dont think I would have got this shot with the DSLR? Edit: Shoot RAW!!
