Behind The Lens
Location
I took this picture at a campground along the Chickahominy River in southeast Virginia.Time
It was the end of a warm summery day in May, in the evening.Lighting
Mother nature at its best.Equipment
I used my Nikon D7000 with an AF DX Nikkor 18-140mm lens. No filters, flashes or tripods were used.Inspiration
The colors of the evening sky were just so very vivid and I liked the way the trees framed the side of it.Editing
Not much done, to it, but a little clarity added to it.In my camera bag
As I am a Hobby Photographer, most of the time I am always using only my Nikon D7000 with the same lens (AF-S Nikkor 18-140mm). I have by now added a circular polarized filter which has really come in handy to add more contrast and color. Though I have a tripod, I seldom carry it with me.Feedback
I got lucky that evening, but clearly one needs to get out often to eventually catch a day with just the right lighting. So if you have a favorite spot, go there often.
