Behind The Lens
Location
this was taken at a little historical park in Buffalo Gap, Texas. they have moved a number of historic buildings to the siteTime
this was taken inside a replica post office, but was taken late afternoonLighting
ambient light was used, was not using a flash out of respect for othersEquipment
this was taken handheld with a canon 5D mkiii and 16-35mm F2.8l lensInspiration
I was just wandering the site shooting whatever looked interestingEditing
this is an HDR shot combined from 3 different exposures. Other than converting to mono the only other change was to was massage the lighting using LightroomIn 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
I always look for quaint museums or historical sites nearby when traveling, you never know what you'll find...
