This picture was taken at sunset and gives the picture a wonderful contrast in colour. There is also contrast from old and modern. The old clock tower

2 weeks before Christmas, our City of Brampton got blanketed with a nice covering of snow, turning the downtown into a Winter Wonderland.

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this picture at a railroad crossing near my home.

Time

It was late evening as the sun was setting and using the tracks as a base for the picture.

Lighting

I used natural lighting, no flash or artificial lighting. A Natural sunset.

Equipment

A Canon T1 Rebel. 18-50mm lens. NO flash.

Inspiration

I enjoy taking pictures of sunsets, and using a railway line seemed like a great idea. Shooting in Black & white too.

Editing

The only post-processing that was done was some slight editing with the lighting.

In my camera bag

Two Cameras. Zoom lens, flash unit, filters, and tripod.

Feedback

Wait until sunset and try shooting in black and white, the shadows come out more.
