Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the Vatican Museum in the Vatican City.

Time

This was taken early on in the morning, after a walk across Rome. We managed to get a museum ticket early on in the day and I came across this staircase at the entrance.

Lighting

Natural lighting, coming in from the large windows and skylights above.

Equipment

Nikon D300 camera with an 18-300mm lens. These are my go-to bits of kit and I always seem to have them with me.

Inspiration

I loved the way the staircase wound around and not in a complete circle.

Editing

Minimal post-processing in Lightroom.

In my camera bag

As above, usually the Nikon D300 and 18-300mm zoom lens.

Feedback

Look all around you at all times and take lots of shots wherever you go.
