Behind The Lens

Location

Along the Carefree Highway in the Desert Hills, New River area of Phoenix, Arizona

Time

A brisk November morning around 7am

Lighting

I took a few shots before the sun came through the tree and got some interesting effects on the foreground and sky to play with different settings. Then waited for the sun to come through the tree.

Equipment

This was taken with an Olympus E-620, no flash, hand held. F/22 ISO 200. 14mm-42mm kit lens

Inspiration

I pass thus way eveyday on my way to work. Our sunrises in Arizona can be quite spectacular I stopped to take it in...and...I ended being late for work. But it was worth it!

Editing

I added an HDR filter at about 30%

In my camera bag

I now shoot with a canon 6d. The kit lens 24-105mm, just bought the 70-200mm f/2.8 ii, my nifty 50mm, 180mm macro

Feedback

Patience...Enjoy the scenery while you wait. Try different settings to see what you get. Sometimes the unexpected brings the most satisfaction.
