Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in Geyserville, a small town about 70 miles north of San Francisco.

Time

This was around 2 p.m.

Lighting

Nothing unusual.

Equipment

Sony Nex-6, handheld with a 16-55mm lens.

Inspiration

This is a very small town in the wine country. It has a wooden sidewalk in places and this bench just caught my attention. Because of the open places in the bench's design, I just thought I'd try to capture a unique view.

Editing

I only did some tweaking of the Apple photos "adjustments".

In my camera bag

I carry a Sony Nex-6 and a Sony a6000. Both cameras are very light weight, and I carry at least one with me all the time.

Feedback

Capturing a photo like this is just a matter of trying to put your view in an unnatural or unusual spot.
