Behind The Lens

Location

This is Akard Station in downtown Dallas, taken very early morning in the rain...

Time

This was taken around 5:30AM, well before dawn

Lighting

It was misting in the dark which lit up the sky a bit

Equipment

I shot this on the way to work with my S20 cellphone

Inspiration

I had to switch trains downtown, I shot this while waiting in the rain

Editing

This was massaged slightly in Lighroom

In my camera bag

These days my 'walk about' setup is a Canon RP Mirrorless with a 24-240mm lens, but I'll also carry a 5D Mk III with any number of lenses if I'm looking to shoot something specific. I do have a couple of crop sensor bodies if I want a bit more reach, the extra magnification from the 1.6 crop factor helps there. I'm usually looking for cool things at random while traveling, so I often don't plan shots beforehand - I'm a pretty impromptu/opportunistic photographer. I've found I spend the most time with a 16-35mm wide angle, various prime lenses, or some sort of zoom depending on what I'm shooting. I also tend to use super-zooms a lot so I don't have to changes lenses out in the open.

Feedback

Rainy days are great for capturing reflections...
