Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at the Devil's Hopyard State Park in East Haddam, Connecticut Devil's Hopyard State Park is a public recreation area located at the Eightmile River's Chapman Falls in the town of East Haddam, Connecticut. The 1,000-acre state park includes facilities for hiking, fishing, bicycling, picnicking, and camping. The street address to get there is on 366 Hopyard Rd

Time

We were there early afternoon between 1 pm and 2 pm. We come here every fall to take photos because of the beauty that shows in the fall

Lighting

Nothing special about the lighting, just God's afternoon sun

Equipment

The camera I used was a Canon Rebel T3i

Inspiration

Just the beauty of what I saw with my eyes inspired this photo and others that were taken that day

Editing

No post processing sorry

In my camera bag

What I have in my bag is one 55 mm lens and a 70 -210mm lens and my newest lens is a Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD

Feedback

Best advice I can give is to trust your eyes if something appeals to you or interests you than take a picture and enjoy the fun of taking pictures. I would also suggest to always have a camera in your car. You never know when a opportunity pops up in front of you
