Behind The Lens

Location

The American Church in Berlin, Germany

Time

The time was mid afternoon, mostly sunny in the mid 80’s.

Lighting

The lightning outside was basically sunny 16, so that part was easy. Transitioning from inside the church (a lighting nightmare), to outside was fun!

Equipment

At that time I was using a Sony DSC WX 300.

Inspiration

This moment is a tradition in the USA, but in Germany, they had other traditions, so I wanted to capture this one before the the local ones took place, which were much anticipated.

Editing

No post processing. The moment said it all!

In my camera bag

I was somewhat a minimalist on this trip, so nothing more than extra batteries and SD cards. Normally I carry basic cleaning supplies, filters and a small tripod.

Feedback

Aperture is always important and easier in these lighting conditions outdoors, but shutter speed is king in capturing the moment. This photo f/5 (figure crop factor 1/2.3”), ISO 125, shutter 1/100, lens 16.46mm
