Behind The Lens

Location

On the highway of tears between Prince Rupert & Terrace B.C

Time

Early evening .

Lighting

Th sun was just going down.The sun was almost set .It left only a little bit of golden light on the tree tops lining the cliffs.

Equipment

I used a NikonD7100.No tripod and a 18-300mm lens.

Inspiration

When I took this photo I was thinking of all the missing and murdered indigenous Woman who lost their lifes hitching on this highway .A one way trip with no return.It's a haunting highway.One can feel their souls still here.

Editing

Yes I added more light to the photo as it was too dark and added a touch more of yellow to pop the yellow line on the highway and the sunlight as it caught on the tree tops.

In my camera bag

Nikon D7100 is my main camera.I have an older Sony a6000 also.
