Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Mainz in Germany.

Time

Evening, last few minutes of blue hour.

Lighting

I set up camera to create nice stars from the lamps on the brigde - aperture f/11.

Equipment

My camera was NIKON 850, lens was Nikkor 24mm 1,8. Because I used time 30 seconds I had tripod.

Inspiration

I have seen this bridge on photo taken during the day. So I wandered how it looks at the evening. I have taken photoes from both sides of the river and left and right side of the bridge. This side gave me the best result.

Editing

I tranferred RAW picture to jpg using DxO PhotoLab2, and used Photoshop to play with saturation and colours.

In my camera bag

Camera in my bag is Nikon 850 and lenses depend on the planned type of photography. For this type of picture I usually use wide lens /24 mm/ and tripod.

Feedback

Don´t be satisfied with the first place you come (usually everybody is taking pictures there) and try to walk around and find unigue spots and views.
