Location
This is one of the old bomb factory buildings in Caddo Lake WMR - a WWII bomb factory that's now a wildlife preserveTime
This would have been early afternoonLighting
I was in a shaded concrete area shooting into a bright areaEquipment
This was taken with a Canon 70D and 16-300mm SuperzooomInspiration
I was camping in the area and went looking to explore some of the old buildings hidden in the forestEditing
This was massaged a bit using LightroomIn my camera bag
These days my 'walk about' setup is a Canon RP Mirrorless with a 24-240mm lens, but I'll also carry a 5D Mk III with any number of lenses if I'm looking to shoot something specific. I do have a couple of crop sensor bodies if I want a bit more reach, the extra magnification from the 1.6 crop factor helps there. I'm usually looking for cool things at random while traveling, so I often don't plan shots beforehand - I'm a pretty impromptu/opportunistic photographer. I've found I spend the most time with a 16-35mm wide angle, various prime lenses, or some sort of zoom depending on what I'm shooting. I also tend to use super-zooms a lot so I don't have to changes lenses out in the open.Feedback
I knew about WMA being on an old bomb factory - Google Maps helped to locate some of the buildings beforehand...
