Behind The Lens
Location
The Duthie Park in Aberdeen, ScotlandTime
Late afternoon before sunset in Autumn.Lighting
Just the background sky.Equipment
Sony A700, Sony 16-105 Lens and the car door.Inspiration
The reflection in the boating pond and the dimming light.Editing
Three exposures were combined for the original shot then layered with a peeling wallpaper template from a photo magazine cd. I just picked this shot at random to try out the templates and liked the end result. I don't really get involved in this normally and don't play around with Photoshop as much as I would like. I do like HDR, if it doesn't move it gets three shots, -2 , 0 & +2. Normal post processing is confined to cropping, straightening, sharpening and exposure correction.In my camera bag
Sony A77, A77ii, A6000, Sony 16-105, Sigma 17-85, Tamron 28-300, Sony 18-200 (e-mount) and Sony G 70-400, 2 flashguns, Polarising Filters, tripod, monopod and lots of batteries and memory cards.Feedback
Watch the weather, wait for different lightning and try out different exposures, post processing with HDR and/or layering techniques can give very interesting results.
