Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in some part of Bahay na Bato in Luna, La Union,Philippines. I considered myself as an amateur photographer since i just started taking photos last May! I took last June during my visit to the so called Bahay Na Bato. I just did some experimentation about the setting of my camera and i was so happy that i had this kind of output.

Time

This was taken last June 17,2016 at around 5:40 pm

Lighting

As my friend was mentioning about foreground before, i tried to find a better place and saw that dead tree. I was amazed with the beauty of it. It was a combination of a good sunset plus the dead tree as its foreground. That was wondrous for me especially the effect of the sunset light. I Love of course the beauty the combination of the colors of this photo.

Equipment

I used my newly bought dsrl nikon camera d5500 with the kitlens 18-55 plus tripod.

Inspiration

Since i love reading travel blogs and scrolling sunset photos, i was inspired with the beauty of those photos i had seen from different websites and blog, so i decided to go to photography. With all my sunset photos,for me, this is the best i had ever taken since i started taking photos.

Editing

I did a bit, i just adjusted the shadow and made the highlights lower in lightroom 5. I don't usually process a lot coz my mentor told me that i have to take photos directly from my eyes.

In my camera bag

I usually carry my DSLR camera nikon D5500 plus kitlens whenever i go out.On my days off, i can't go out without this ewuipment in my bag.

Feedback

At Bahay na Bato,Luna,La Union, you can take the best sunset with different foreground like boad trees and dead tree, fence and even people. I highly suggest that for landscape photographers to go there around May to June since the weather is still goodd.It is still summer time. Bahay na Bato has someting to boast not only its beautiful olf items yet around it has its beautiful scenery especially the seashore.
