Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken at Trillium Lake near Mt. Hood in Oregon.

Time

This shot was taken several years ago. It was in the morning. We were camping at the lake and it was cloudy the previous two days. I went out for a walk and was lucky enough to catch the reflection.

Lighting

Just morning, mountain light :-)

Equipment

I usually have my Nikon D40 around, but this photo was taken with my Android phone.

Inspiration

I had wanted to get a shot like this of Mt. Hood at Trillium. I've seen numerous other shots similar and was disappointed when the previous days were cloudy.

Editing

I think I just did an auto fix with ON1 software. Like I mentioned, it was a few years back so I can't quite remember.

In my camera bag

I'm just a hobby-guy so nothing spectacular...A Nikon D40 with the lenses they provided in the box. I take a lot of shots with my Android phone. When it comes to using filters, I usually utilize my polarized sunglasses :-)

Feedback

Patience. Keep walking by the scene and always believe the setting will be perfect...and take the shots even if it isn't :-)
