Behind The Lens

Location

Took this photo near an old abandoned ghost town in South East Alberta, Retlaw. It was left in a field near an old farmstead long since forgotten.

Time

This was taken in late day afternoon.

Lighting

The weather was very windy as a storm rolled in and I felt that the black and white really brought out the ambiance of it the storm and the rustic old and forgotten.

Equipment

Nikon D3200, 17-55mm lens, no flash or tripod used,

Inspiration

I loved the look of the old wagon, I loved the feel of mystique to wonder what travels it had had in its day. I loved the sky behind it and positioned to make sure the sky was well represented in the photo because it added to it.

Editing

The only post-processing was adding my name and making it black and white.

In my camera bag

Normally I carry the 17-55mm and a 55-200mm lens. Cleaning cloth and that is about it.

Feedback

I would say that if you want to capture something similar you have to road trip a lot. Go through Google and ask questions about your area, map out a trip, stop at anything and everything. Be prepared for a lot of driving and stopping.
