Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken just off Hwy 14 in Strathcona County, Alberta, Canada. The flat bed transport was parked on the side of the highway at the perfect sunset moment. I pulled over an took a number of photos and settled with this angle and sunset.

Time

Month of January around 5:00 p.m. daylight savings time.

Lighting

The reflection off the snow added to the detail in the subject and the added nice sunset was a great touch.

Equipment

I used a Canon EOS 5d and the 17-40 mm f/4L EF USM lens on a tripod at f/16, 1/20th sec and ISO 160

Inspiration

I was inspired at where this piece of equipment was going to be installed in the heartland of Alberta,

Editing

I did a bit of Lightroom colour enhancement and vingette.

In my camera bag

I usually have a CANON RF 24-240mm f/4-6.3 IS USM Lens and Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM Lens in my bag along with the one I used for this photo.

Feedback

Always be ready with all your equipment and a have a tripod when needed to get steady in focus photos,
