I took this shot away back in 2013 when my wife and myself went for a days outing and found ourselves at the top of this rather famous street, and of course my wife decided to take a walk down it and back up, chatting to one of the locals. But what a view you get from the top overlooking the fields at the back.

I like this! I like the way the houses are designed, so different from where I live

Behind The Lens

Location

Gold hill, Shaftesbury, Dorset.

Time

It was about mid morning

Lighting

The sun was just starting to rise higher, so I used the natural light

Equipment

I used a FinePix JX 510 camera with the built in zoom lens.

Inspiration

Well the street was well known years ago for being used in a television commercial where a young lad pushed a bike up the street with a loaf of bread in the basket. I had always wanted to see the place myself.

Editing

No, I just clicked and reviewed what I shot, then uploaded it to my computer,

In my camera bag

Normally I use my smartphone camera for a quick shot of something when I am out and around. But if I am going somewhere special I take along whatever camera I have at the time.

Feedback

Don't be afraid to use natural light which could bring out the highlights of your shot to your advantage.
