Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on the Western face of Signal Hill in Cape Town.

Time

Sundowners on the hill are always a spectacle. With the sun setting rather rapidly, I was walking down the hill taking shots when the branch came to sight and I held my camera as still as possible to produce this shot.

Lighting

Nothing at all. I simply tried to balance the blue sky, blue ocean waters and orange from the sun's raryss.

Equipment

This image was captured on a Canon PowerShot SX520 HS.

Inspiration

Having planning to go and experience a sundowner. Naturally, as a fan of nature photography, I took my camera with, to get some good shots of the famed African sunset.

Editing

None at all.

In my camera bag

Curently, all I have is my Canon PowerShot SX520 HS. Looking eagerly for my next upgrade.

Feedback

Signal Hill, Lion's Head and Table Mountain have offer some really spectacular views of the city and surrounding landscape. The top of Signal Hill is a walk or cycle away, but going to the top of Lion's Head gives a great hike and if you are lucky, may end up above the clouds!
