Behind The Lens

Location

this is behind a very old building that now serves as a wedding venue in Nagodoches Texas, the oldest city in the state

Time

this was taken after noon on a clear spring day

Lighting

the door was in a shaded area under a covered loading dock in the rear of the building

Equipment

this was taken with a Canon 80D and 18-300mm superzoom

Inspiration

i was just exploring the town and noticed the door, i had to grab a few shots....

Editing

this was massaged and converted to mono using Lightroom

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

sometimes its fun to drive around back alleys in old towns, you never know what's back there!
