I basically just like to use the natural light around the subject and if I have to, do alittle processing with the light balance and brightness.. Lighting is tough when the sun is close to being in view. I try not to shoot in the suns direction but sometimes u can not help it to a pointEquipment
I used my Nikon D5000, NIKOR 55-200 1.4-56G lens and the lens hood which blocked the sun which was slightly to the rightInspiration
I am a morning person and I love being near the water. It was going to be a beautiful day out and was off from work so I was up and out the door early. I went down to the shore and actually stopped in my tracks when I got close to the water. The view I had when I looked to my left made me snap this picture. It was the first one I took that day. It was just the feeling I got, so I took the picture. Whatever catches my eye, I shootEditing
little bit of color balancing and alittle bit of darkening on the brightness during alittle post-processing Also I cropped ever so slightlyIn my camera bag
My camera, 4 different lens, the lens hood, and smaller cameras (for examp[e - my Kodak EasyShare C340)Feedback
Take as many photos u can of your subject and then choice the one you want to use. Sometimes you may need alittle post processing because of the sun. I basically shoot the subject then work with what is created.
