Behind The Lens
Location
Taken on McKenzie Beach near Tofino on Vancouver Island’s rugged west coast.Time
Sun was starting to setLighting
The sunset provided all the lighting requiredEquipment
I don’t carry a tripod, and shooting wildlife with a flash is a no-no. Handheld works for meInspiration
We were having dinner at a restaurant overlooking the beach when I could see the sunset start to develop. Left my family to go capture the shotEditing
Not much editing required as Mother Nature offered the perfect sceneIn my camera bag
My go-to camera is a Nikon D7200 with a 200-500 mm lens. I also carry an 80-200 lens. Between the two, that’s usually all I need for nature photographyFeedback
Just always carry a camera, as you never know when an opportunity might present itself.
