Location
I took this photo in Holland, Michigan in February. This is “Big Red” the beautiful lighthouse.Time
I took this photo around 4 pm when the sun sets early.Lighting
I love the contrast of sunlight peeking out from the clouds, the white snow, and the pop of color in Big Red.Equipment
I handheld my Canon and used my 18-300mm lens.Inspiration
I love the pop of red in Big Red and how it contrasts with the white snow. The gorgeous rays of sun peeking out were the cherry on top!Editing
I’m an amateur photographer. I usually used the app Snapseed for any post-processing in my photographs.In my camera bag
I usually carry my camera with an all purpose lens in a plastic baggy to prevent it being hit with any splashes of water from the beach or on the pier. I always have a UV lens cover to protect my camera lens.Feedback
February is a great time to get some amazing winter shots in Michigan, especially at the beach. Look for those brief periods that the grey clouds part and the sun peeks through.
