Behind The Lens

Location

Rocky Mountain National Park

Time

Evening

Lighting

Got to catch that last hour of daylight for twilight!

Equipment

iPhone 6 with my detachable lens' actually. Being a hiker, you want lightweight. Less weight, better travels.

Inspiration

I love nature. I want to inspire people to get out and enjoy the free, simple things in life. Get away from all the negativity this world brings, and just enjoy the small things. Or large things through the lens.

Editing

I did some photo editing on my phone.

In my camera bag

Camera, iPhone, detachable lens', tripod, clothes, food, and first aid.

Feedback

Always try to get out early in the morning, or late afternoon. First hour of sunrise, last hour of sunset. You can't just stand up and take a picture always. Sometimes you have to work for it. Kneel down, lay down, take risks, whatever you have to do to get that perfect shot. Don't just go to the tourist areas to take your shots. The hidden gems are always on a trail. At least that's how it works for me.
