Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Lisbon near the Vasco da Gama bridge, one of the bridges that crosses the Tejo River towards the capital.

Time

The photo was taken very early, I remember arriving at the place around 6 in the morning and thinking that I would be there alone, but to my surprise there were many photographers already pointing their cameras at the bridge.

Lighting

The morning was cold and with some clouds, the sun broke the horizon and the sky turned wonderful colors

Equipment

Photo taken with a Canon EOS 60D and the 75-300 kit lens.

Inspiration

My cousin, he was the one who called me to take some pictures that morning, he said that the sky would be fantastic to photograph and he was right. See other photos of this magnificent bridge also inspired me to take my own photos and see how I see it.

Editing

Yes just a few minor color corrections.

In my camera bag

Now in the bag I have a Canon 80D + Canon 18-200mm lens(kit) and another Sigma 17-50 2.8 lens. I also have a DJI mini drone. The Manfrotto 190xb tripod is also always with me.

Feedback

Taking pictures near this bridge is simple, whether in the morning, afternoon or evening any photo will be extraordinary as long as it is well framed.
