Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken early in the fall on a lonely highway into Salem, Oregon.

Time

The sun was just rising as the morning fog was exposing itself.

Lighting

This was done with natural light. I am new to photography. With that being said, I had no idea about the different aspects of lighting can bring.

Equipment

This was taken with the first camera I had ever purchased. It is a Fujifilm FinePix S purchased from Walmart.

Inspiration

Morning fog has intrigued me. The way it flows around the landscape, creating art making every moment special. This photo has gives me a sense of peace and tranquility everytime I see it.

Editing

As for post processing, I use Corel Paintshop. I cannot explain what I did to improve the raw photo. I had only used the program for creating free form art. I may have just pushed the auto enhance and left it as it was. I am still learning how to use such programs.

In my camera bag

My camera bag just had a few batteries, memory cards, and my camera. No special lens or anything else outside the purchased kit.

Feedback

The advice I can give is get up before the sun rises. Find a place that lets you feels peace. Always be aware of your surroundings no matter how big or small. Art is everywhere and is a view of perception through our own eyes. Photography is a way to share our perception of life to the world. And thank you for your views and appreciation to my point of view.
