Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken on an overpass on the way home to my apartment in Portland.Time
I remember it was close to midnight because the road I was on lacked the busyness that was below and it somehow awed me.Lighting
I wanted the viewer to be able to relate to the photo by just having the lights of the city beyond blurred but no detail on the actual city.Equipment
Pentax-k 50Inspiration
I've always loved the night and taking pictures and I find it peaceful so I wanted to take a picture to inspire that feeling in others.Editing
No this is straight from the camera!In my camera bag
I usually pack my zoom lens and my 50mm lens along with rain gear since it rains all the time here.Feedback
It helps to have something in the foreground to focus on and even if you don't want a foreground object in the picture use it to focus then step away.
