Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken from the Rockerfeller building New York City. On our first day on holiday celebrating me and my wifes 50th.

Time

Had a walk around in the morning. Then as we were walking past the Rock decided to go up top. This was around 3pm. Bit chilly hardly any wind.

Lighting

Clear but chilly day just took it as it was no tricks.

Equipment

Believe it or not this was taken with just a Samsung S7 camera phone. No tripod no flash no fancy lens. Just me making sure it was central. Oh how I would like a proper camera.

Inspiration

As this is probably one of the most iconic and photographed buildings in the world. It was a dream of mine to capture this by myself for a keepsake. Just to say I WAS THERE and I think I did a good job myself for what I had.

Editing

No processing.

In my camera bag

No equipment.

Feedback

The weather can change very quickly in places just pick a clear day not a great deal of wind as this could make the shot more difficult unless you use a tripod. Then just make sure you have the building or item central so that it stands out more . Even night shots as long as the buiding or item has plenty of light around them .
