Location
This photograph was taken from my backyard in West Hills, CaliforniaTime
It was in the early morning. Here in Los Angeles there is always a marine layer at the that time of day.. By late morning the sun burns it off.Lighting
I didn't use any particular lighting not even a flash. Just the daylight.Equipment
I took the picture using a Nikon Coolpix 100 camera without a tripod and no flash. The f-stop was f/5.6 and the ISO speed was ISO-160, max aperture was 3.Inspiration
As I watched the kite drifting in the air, it seemed like a fantasy story. Where sky pirates would sail the skies in the mist and fog searching for treasures on the land. A true Flying Dutchman.Editing
Because the fog made everything a bit too grey, I used Lightroom to brighten up the trees making the green pop a little.In my camera bag
Just my camera or sometimes a I used my iPhone because I don't have a camera with me.Feedback
Get up early. LOL. I like to take pictures of everyday things or everyday happenings. Like sailing a kite. In the right moment, it can have a magical appearance.
