After a long day hanging out with friends leaving the lake I snapped a couple pictures of friends then when we reached our vehicles the Supermoon had come out so beautifully.Lighting
This was a single shot hand held photo.Equipment
Shot hand held on a Canon though I dont remember what model at the moment. Ive Upgraded a few times from the 30D to the R and Eos 1Dx. It may have even been an old rebel since I wasnt expecting thw photo and was hanging out with friends in a lake...Inspiration
By chance, looking back at the fun filled day the scene was perfect.Editing
Actually this photo was processed using bith lightroom and photoshop. I pulled a little "God Omighty" and pulled the moon forward making the illusion of a super super moon.In my camera bag
Currently I always carry my Conon R beings so lightweight and convenient. I always have my 50mm 1.4 my 24 - 70 L and my 70-200 L.Feedback
Best advise I can give is always keep a camera around, step back look at the BIG PICTURE as well as step in and look at the bits of life inside that big picture.
