Behind The Lens

Location

Taken down in Inverloch in Victoria, Australia

Time

This was taken late morning on a somewhat windy day

Lighting

As you can see by the image, there was a fairly even distribution of clouds and blue sky. I was lucky enough to get the shot pretty spot on first attempt

Equipment

I use a Canon 7D (original), at the time I had my smaller lens on, pulled back to about 28mm. The shot was taken hand held, with me basically holding the camera as close to the ground as possible .

Inspiration

I loved the view as it was but always enjoy taking shots from as low a viewpoint as possible.

Editing

About the only post I did was to crop this and a minor removal of highlights.

In my camera bag

Normally I carry 3 lenses with me. My small 28-50mm, a 70-300mm and Bertha - my 150-500mm Sigma lens. Bertha tends to get used more - she's great for action sports and wildlife.

Feedback

Do what I do...don't think about the shot too much - just go ahead and shoot.
