Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken at my home in Fowlerville Michigan just north west of Detroit by 70 miles.Time
Photo was taken between 9:00 and 10:00 am.Lighting
What I thought made this photo special was a fog in the background due to a recent change in temperature.Equipment
Shot with a Nikon 610 standard lensInspiration
I am always inspired by this burl oak tree which has been estimated to be around 300-400 years old. It has a personaity that shines through any season and can be seen in this photo.Editing
I adjusted the highlights slightly in Lightroom.In my camera bag
I keep a zoom lens and a 500-mm lens. Also keep on hand a GoPro camera as well as a DJ1 Phantom Pro Drone.Feedback
Just when you see something that makes you stop and look, it's probably worthy of a photograph.
