Behind The Lens

Location

Photo taken in field near Carmel by the Sea near Monterey.

Time

Evening sunset

Lighting

Lighting was natural sunset so I shot auto with available light due to running out of time. Snapped off about 20 images. Just at the right moment, light filtered through and lit the grasses in the forground.

Equipment

Nikon D610 with Tripod. Lens Nikon

Inspiration

A friend took my wife and I to this undeveloped field. He wanted us to run to edge of field to see sunset from that vantage point. I was inspired by the light coming through the beautiful background of trees. Enough light to illuminate the grass in the foreground.

Editing

Very minor Lightroom to enhance the blue plants.

In my camera bag

Normally just the camera, a normal lens, a 500mm Nikon, and a 200 mm

Feedback

Dawn and Dusk are my favorite times. Shooting landscapes with no physical signs of people or buildings, all natural. Just shoot, if you don't like the image, delete it and move on and create again.
