Behind The Lens

Location

I took the photo in Suwon, South Korea. It was in a higher part of the town, not the old center itself. Just wandering around

Time

I worked in Suwon for over a week and I tried to see as much as possible from the city. This dat I took a walk after work in the late afternoon

Lighting

I saw the rays of the sun and I wanted to catch them

Equipment

I used a Canon 70D with 17-55 f2.8 IS USM, handheld

Inspiration

The rays of the sunlight combined with the temple. The view was just beautiful

Editing

Post processing is simple lightroom processing, actually not too much

In my camera bag

I was walking light that day. What I take depends on the occasion: I can combine my canon 5d mark IV with: 70-200 f2.8 IS USM, 24-70 f4.0 IS USM, SIGMA 50mm f1.4 and SIGMA 150-600mm and a canon 70D and a canon flash 600 EX-II RT (on a safari trip I leave the 50mm at home)

Feedback

Look for an attractive silhouet and a beautiful cloudy sky and radiant lights. Don't wait, just take the shot (but be sure you have the right settings). I used: Canon 70D: 33 mm; 3200s; f3.2; ISO 160. It resulted in a fast shutterspeed, since I pointed at the sun.
