Location
This was taken in Grand Teton's National ParkTime
This was taken mid-day. I later discovered the spot I shot this from is VERY popular around sunrise/sunset!Lighting
It was a clear fall day, the only clouds were around the mountains themselvesEquipment
This is an old shot taken with a Canon T4i and 18-55mm kit lensInspiration
The view! The Tetons are a very pretty park...Editing
This was massaged a bit using Elements - it's an old shot and I was still shooting in JPG, I hadn't learned to do RAW yet - there was only so much to be done without the extra dataIn my camera bag
These days my 'walk about' setup is a Canon RP Mirrorless with a 24-240mm lens, but I'll also carry a 5D Mk III with any number of lenses if I'm looking to shoot something specific. I do have a couple of crop sensor bodies if I want a bit more reach, the extra magnification from the 1.6 crop factor helps there. I'm usually looking for cool things at random while traveling, so I often don't plan shots beforehand - I'm a pretty impromptu/opportunistic photographer. I've found I spend the most time with a 16-35mm wide angle, various prime lenses, or some sort of zoom depending on what I'm shooting. I also tend to use super-zooms a lot so I don't have to changes lenses out in the open.Feedback
This was my first real vacation with my first real DSLR - I just got lucky!
