Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in Northern Ontario at Kesagami Lake which can only be reached by float plane. Once I spotted this sunset around 11PM I just knew I had to capture the moment.

Time

Sunset around 11PM

Lighting

The sun and reflective surface of the calm lake did all the work

Equipment

Canon 30D

Inspiration

The beauty

Editing

Only sharpening the image

In my camera bag

Now I only use a Sony with built in GPS

Feedback

Just take the time and effort to reach far away areas
