Behind The Lens

Location

If my memory still serves me up well, it was about 3 years ago, around November 2013.

Time

I went there to catch the sunset and I have a few nice samples with the same framing. When the Sun set up I've been mesmerized by the reflection of the lights coming from the Houses of Parliament and I kind of liked how it matches with the metallic look of the Westminster Bridge.

Lighting

Just natural lighting, nothing more or less.

Equipment

I've used Canon 6D with the 28mm 1.8 canon lens.

Inspiration

Everything I saw prior to your last picture taken inspired me in a way or another.

Editing

Most of the editing was done in Lightroom. I've used also a preset from Picassa to add a bit more mystery to the photo.

In my camera bag

You will probably laugh. At the time I had Canon 6d with 3 primes: 28mm 1.8, 50mm 1.4 and 85 1.8. After those, among others, I've owned Sigma 35 1.4 Art, Canon 50L, 85L, 135L, 100 2.8 IS. I switched to Nikon and I had Nikon D610, D750 and 2 primes - Sigma 35 1.4 Art and Nikon 85 1.4D. Now I am shooting exclusively with Fuji X-Pro 2 & 23 1.4 + 35mm f2.

Feedback

Keep trying. Sometimes is all about luck and sudden inspiration.
