Behind The Lens

Location

Oak Creek Canyon West Fork trail! a few miles from Sedona, Arizona!

Time

Late morning!

Lighting

Available light mostly in the shade of the overhang but with sunlight in the Autumn tree color!

Equipment

5D MK II and EOS 17-40 L wide angle lens!

Inspiration

Just off the trail I wanted to look at the West Fork creek and notices the great reflection and color!

Editing

Tweeked contrast, exposure, shadow detail and sharpening in Lightroom!

In my camera bag

I now have Canon 5D MK III, Canon 7D MK II, EOS 17-40 L wideangle, 100/2.8 Macro L and Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC

Feedback

Just keep your eyes open and get off the beaten path and get the correct POV for this kind of shot!
