Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken at the pond in Pescadero Creek just east of the highway bridge (California)

Time

Late afternoon

Lighting

Gray clouds, not too promising but it worked

Equipment

Sony A99 with a 24-70 lens and a tripod.

Inspiration

Part of a one day workshop with Tony Sweet. I was trying to use some of the methodology he taught.

Editing

Yes, Aperture and Photoshop. Aperture is no longer supported by Apple and I have switched to Luminar.

In my camera bag

What I need for that day. I take as little as possible. Of late mostly just a Sony RX10iv with extra battery in the pouch of the camera strap I use.

Feedback

Go out more. The more you go out the more chances you have for interesting things to see/photograph
