Behind The Lens

Location

Washington, D.C.

Time

Late afternoon

Lighting

Natural daylight

Equipment

Nikon D800, Nikkor 24-120mm handheld

Inspiration

It's a classic monument!

Editing

The Roman style columns gave it an ancient feel so I thought it would be interesting to convert it to B&W to add to that feeling.

In my camera bag

Nikon D800, Nikkor 24-120mm, Nikkor 80-400mm, Nikkor 105mm Micro, and a Fuji X20 as my backup camera.

Feedback

Try to picture in your mind how something might look in B&W. Something that is ordinary in color might be striking in B&W.
