Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in South Africa.

Time

After a long day photographing animals in South Africa my tour guide took me to the top of a mountain to enjoy the sunset. It was the perfect way to finish the day.

Lighting

The light was perfect that afternoon, the sky was dressed in color!

Equipment

I used a Canon 5d mark iii with a Canon 28-300mm f3.5L lens. No filters were used for this photo, the photo was taken handheld.

Inspiration

I really was inspired by the scenery, back then I was not into Landscape Photography but I just coundn't pass this opportunity.

Editing

I worked the photo in Lightroom, just recovered shadows and highlights and applied a little vibrance to the photo.

In my camera bag

Lenses, cleaning tissues.

Feedback

Just have some fun with it!
