Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Sidecut Metropark, along the banks of the Maumee River in Maumee, Ohio

Time

It was shortly after sunrise, about 7:00am during the Golden Hour time frame.

Lighting

The sun rays cascading through the trees contrasting with the shadows of the wooded area.

Equipment

The camera was handheld, taken with a Canon 7D and Canon 28-135mm f/3.5 lens.

Inspiration

I was impressed by the sun rays cascading through the trees onto the walkway and adjacent area.

Editing

I used the Shade setting (white balance) which gave the photo a soft amber ambience.

In my camera bag

Most often I carry a Canon 6D mark ii with a Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 lens and a Sony a7R with a 24-105mm f/4 lens and filters (ND, Cpl). Most of my shots are done free hand.

Feedback

Make use of weather reports, the Exsate Golden Hour app and Google's SunPositionMap
