This was taken towards dusk at the beginning of NovemberLighting
It was a cloudy day just reaching dusk. All natural lighting.Equipment
Cannon 80D Manifold tri-pod Cannon EFS 18-200 mm Cable releaseInspiration
This is my favorite spot for photography. The weather is alway changing which gives off so many different compositions. This was taken one the anniversary day the Edmund Fitzgerald sank in Lake Superior. Each year the have a tribute for the sailors that lost their lives and light the Lighthouse (this is no longer s working Lighthouse)Editing
Just a little post processing. Changed to B/W, upped the contrast and added some grain with a vignette.In my camera bag

Make sure you have a sturdy tri-pod, cable or wireless release, make sure you get there early as there were about 400 photographers, bring something to sit on, a blanket to keep warm, and a flashlight to get bank to your vehicle
