Behind The Lens

Location

Miramar Golf Club, Wellington, New Zealand. Specifically, on the practice putting green.

Time

Early morning - probably around 8am, for the round of golf I was about to play we assemble early, warm up as a team then start at approx 9am

Lighting

Wellington is a harbour city so we get layers of cloud at varying levels, some moving quickly at height, other layers lower down and almost stationary - the shot came about because the sunrise burst through the layers showing shadows at my feet.

Equipment

iPhone 6S, I used to use this handset with my normal SIM as I ran a golf yardage app on it and it's an older phone so I'm less likely to damage it

Inspiration

The shadows thrown by the tree across the putting green

Editing

Yes, most likely in Fotor, and looking back, possibly a little too much emphasis on contrast, would probably take a lighter touch these days

In my camera bag

Sony a6000 with a variety of lenses, also a Canon SX fixed lens for the zoom option it provides when needed.

Feedback

Use whatever camera you have available, as it's often said, the best camera is the one you have.
