Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Lisbon from the riverside near the central Square.

Time

It was beginning of December. By that time, the sunset is too early for us and this photo was taken at 17.45h.

Lighting

For this purpose and as for me, the light was perfect. Getting a colorful sunset but still possible to see the silhouette of the "25 de Abril" bridge over Tejo river.

Equipment

I used my compact camera Canon Powershot SX710 HS. No flash, no tripod, F/5.6, 1/250 sec., ISO-80.

Inspiration

It was exactly the color of the sunset and the contrast with the black silhouette of the bridge.

Editing

I improved the contrast a little bit only.

In my camera bag

As an amateur, I always take with me my new mobile Sony E5603, a Canon compact camera Powershot SX710 HS, my older camera Olympus VG-160, some extra batteries and, sometimes a small tripod.

Feedback

Who am I to give advices to others who know much more than me? Allow me to only say: look, like and shot! That's what I made with this photo. My eyes looked, liked the image so much and I took it.
