Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo on a farm outside of where I live. I made several captures trying to capture the rainbow that emerged from the ground

Time

We had gone on a picnic to a field area surrounded by farms. Any place where you put your eyes was full of flowers. There was a hill in the distance especially spectacular, at about 1:15 p.m. I decided to get on the road. I was walking a little over half an hour across, finally I came to an area. I stood still contemplating the scene for about five minutes and then started taking pictures, it was almost 2:00 pm

Lighting

It was outdoors one of the first sunny days of spring, the sun warmed without becoming suffocating and the light flooded everything. The colors shone brightly everywhere and in the distance they looked like colored spots on the earth. That day nature decided to paint an impressionist painting and for that it used light and flowers

Equipment

The only necessary equipment was a Canon 1300D with an EF-S18-55mm lens.

Inspiration

When I saw that hill in the distance I remembered the paintings of Van Gogh or Claude Monet, no doubt Impressionism was very present while taking pictures

Editing

There is some editing, but significantly less than in other photographs I have taken, for example the slight reduction in brightness and the increase in saturation to help distinguish the full range of shades in the colors

In my camera bag

Mine is a very simple team, typical of someone who, like me, has not been long in this: a Canon 1300D body, an EF-S 18-55 lens and another EF-S 55-250. The rest is based on patience and tenacity

Feedback

A day with that light and beauty, so delicate and colorful, filling everything. A day like that is impossible not to find something that inspires you. It is often said that the inspiration comes working, but sometimes it also comes and takes you by the hand, then it is enough that you let yourself go
