Behind The Lens
Location
This shot was taken from using a drone over a local area reservoir. This is the first time I have used the drone so this was a new experience and challenge.Time
This was taken in the late morning right around 11:00 AM. Nice sunny spring day in the middle of May.Lighting
I got really lucky and the light was nice that day and the picture was captured in a natural environment.Equipment
This was captured using a Phantom 3 advanced drone.Inspiration
This is an area I have visited since I was a young child and I thought the picture with the drone would be a great new view.Editing
I have no post processing on this photo.In my camera bag
I have a Nikon D60 body that I am hoping to move on from but it has served me well to this point. I carry a 28-55 and a 55-200 lens in my bag that I use for most of my shots then I have my 500 and 1000 for the long shots.Feedback
I like high places so for me I feel that if you can get above the area you want to capture you are better off. In the case of this shot a drone is needed. The best advise I can give is always have a camera with you and capture as many shots as you can you never know what you are going to end up with untill the shutter is released. Most important thing to remember is have fun.
