Location
This photo was taken on a golf course in my home town. The sun was setting and displayed this beautiful golden colors. Being a self taught photographer, every shot is an experiment. Getting the photo with the right apperture and shutter speed was a personal achievement.Time
This was a late afternoon shot and the sun was starting to set. I remember turning around and seeing the amazing colors. Without a tripod I had to be steady and take the photo.Lighting
No additional lighting was required for this photo. The natural burst of golden sunlight created the perfect lighting. It puts emphasis on the tree, but stays the main focal point.Equipment
Canon EOS1200D Lens Canon 85-300mm Aperture 56/10 ISO 100 Shutter 1/160 Focal lenght 70/1 I didn't use a tripod to take the photo No tripod was usedInspiration
I walked the golf course looking for "nature on a golf course". We often walk but don't see the miracles around us. The moment presented itself. As the saying goes "the right place at the right time".Editing
No post processing was done. It is as it was taken.In my camera bag
My camera Canon EOS1200D and 3 lenses, namely Canon 18 - 55mm Canon 75 -300mm Tamron 150 - 600mmFeedback
Patience is a virtue. If you see the posibility of a good photo, wait a few minutes (or longer). Photography is suppose to be fun and creativity in one. Enjoy the moment. Create the memory.
