Behind The Lens

Location

It was taken from North Sydney looking back to the city over the harbour Taken during Vivid - a Festival of Lightl, the city was constantly drenched in a variety of colours.

Time

The photo was taken at around 8pm when it was completely dark to get the best of the colours.

Lighting

It was dark all around me and I just changed my camera to let in a little more light and I was rewarded with the beautiful purple colours.

Equipment

I used an Olympus camera with a built in zoom lens.

Inspiration

I took a series so that I got the continuing roll of colours in different photos

Editing

Just the normal sharpening and colour balancing.

In my camera bag

I normally carry three lenses and my mobile phone so I am prepared for any situation - macro, standard and zoom. I always take cleaning cloths and a shower cap, a low cost remedy for showers. I also carry spare cards in case of corruption and also a spare battery fully charged. Depending on where I am going I take my monopod or tripod.

Feedback

If your shooting at night, check out the vantage points during the day.
