Early afternoon on a perfect summer dayLighting
Beautiful cloud free day with some wind, gorgeous sunny dayEquipment
I shot this on my Canon 1300D with kit lensInspiration
I wanted to try to capture the beautiful view as a reflection in sunglasses. My gorgeous daughter is always happy to be my model. We had so much fun doing these photos.Editing
I added a little cyan and worked on the crop in Adobe Lightroom as I usually shoot in raw.In my camera bag
My Canon 1300D, Kit lens, 50mm lens and more recently a 80mm lens ball (Christmas present from hubby).Feedback
Lighting is everything, I prefer to shoot in natural day light as the results are usually better for colour. Keep trying different angles, aperture and shutter speed, play with ideas and experiment. Have fun, it shows in your pics :)
