Behind The Lens

Location

Public "Wanderweg" near the Konstanz lake in Heiligenberg.

Time

Mid afternoon in late summer. Around 3 or 4 p.m.

Lighting

The sun is the only light source you see, and as you can almost tell, it was hot!

Equipment

I used a Canon 500D with the standard EFS 18-55mm kit lens. I had a sky filter on.

Inspiration

As mentioned, it was hot. I came around a bend on the pathway and as usual for german pathways (all is well look out for), there was a nice natural spring that led into a pool in which you could walk around. There was a nice breeze and it blew some fallen leaves into the water. The colours caught my eye and I ante in for a splashy walk, camera on hand.

Editing

I balanced the hews and the whites (making it a bit colder) and enhanced the contrast and clarity of the whole image a bit.

In my camera bag

Canon 6d with EF 70-300mm USM and EF 24-105mm 1:4 L IS USM

Feedback

Go EVERYWHERE with your camera! :)
