Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Lake Mcdonald in Glacier National Park in Montana.

Time

This photo was taken about an hour after dusk.

Lighting

This was my first time including a model in a long exposure style shot. We built a little cave just under the surface of the water in which we put a glow stick to illuminate her face. I also used the lighting coming from a nearby building to give the woods a glowing effect similar to fire.

Equipment

I used a canon 40d on a tripod with a kit lens. The light in the water was created with a glow stick

Inspiration

I had been doing basic landscape photography for a while now and wanted to try something a little different, So this is what I came up with on the fly. There was literally no prior planning or set up for this shot.

Editing

Basic post processing.

In my camera bag

Now I carry a canon 5d, long lens and a wide angle lens and thats it.

Feedback

play around with your angles and by that I mean take multiple shots from many different angles.
