Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken on the West Coast of South Africa in spring time when the desert turn into a paradise at a place called Paternoster!

Time

It was taken late afternoon after 4pm coz of the harse light in the Southern Hemisphere.

Lighting

It's was so bright and i might have used a polarised filter to assist with the bright light.

Equipment

I used Canon and Sigma equipment .. This time around I used my tripod to help me keep it steady to take the photo.

Inspiration

Just the beauty where the desert trun into a paradise after a few drops of rain was the inspiration.. Where there is normaly sand and rocks you find feelds of flowers.

Editing

Yes I use Photoshop for all post-processing.

In my camera bag

I have Canon and Sigme equipment in my camera bag.

Feedback

Always take beautiful photos if it's your passion. Never give up .. The more photos to take the better you will learn your camera and compositions .. Enjoy photography!
