Location
This photo was taken earlier this year (2016) at Edmonton Ice Castles in Hawreluk Park, Edmonton, AB.Time
This was taken mid-afternoon at our booked time - only a certain number of people allowed in at any given time. The day was perfect - bright skies, lovely temperature with a light coat and the most amazing blues I've seen in a while!Lighting
The lighting is all natural - even the darker part of the tunnels held an amazing amount of natural light.Equipment
My only camera was used - a Canon Rebel t4i, no flash. I used a Sigma wide angle lens at 10 mm, 1/500 sec @ f 4.0 ISO 100.Inspiration
The inspiration for this shot was purely the leading lines - one of my favourite things to photograph. They draw me in every time!Editing
I shoot in RAW and always open up in Lightroom. No editing was needed on this one - the lighting was just perfect that day!In my camera bag
I always take my Sigma wide angle 10-20 mm, Canon 50mm 1.4 and my Canon "pancake" lens (40 mm). Tripod always comes along on road trips but was not needed at all for the Ice Castles.Feedback
I just keep shooting! I try every angle I can think of and sometimes change up the white balance just to see what happens.
