Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the top of the fire tower on Bald Mountain, in the Adirondacks in New York State.

Time

This was take about Noon.

Lighting

It was blue skies with some clouds.

Equipment

I took this with a Nikon camera. No flash nor tripod.

Inspiration

I am absolutely terrified of heights. However, I decided to go up in the tower and when I got to the top, I took several quick photos before heading back down. When I got home and uploaded my photos, I noticed this one and just felt it captured the beauty of that day.

Editing

I did do the photo processing app on my computer and used the auto function.

In my camera bag

Nikon Camera, 200mm lens

Feedback

Gosh, this was just a lucky shot. I usually take multiple photos of the same subject and know that one of them, will be that lucky shot. Never give up.
