Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Yosemite National Park in Sierra Nevada California. This is one of many sequoia tree in the park.

Time

This is probably one of my favorite image that I took. I was on my way to leave the park when a sun ray draw my attention. I had to act quickly cause the moment could be over in a split second.

Lighting

The moment when I saw the rays I was hoping that my image would be as good as I saw it live.

Equipment

I used my Sony camera that I had just bought a few weeks ago. So I didn't have much time to play with it.

Inspiration

I love to shoot images that tells a story. With this one I hit the bullseye. Right place, right time, right camera settings.

Editing

No I didn't.

In my camera bag

I don't have the Sony camera anymore that I used to capture this image. I switched to the nikon d5100.

Feedback

I would say this. You just have to be lucky to be in the right place and at the right moment. Nature should also allow you to be able to see this because in my view these are miracles of nature.
