Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken on a road trip around Tasmania. My wife and I took a side trip to Ross, just off the main road, and discovered an old village-like community - something just out of England. A walk around happened on this old bridge and the reflections just took my eye.

Time

This was a late morning shot so the light was fairly accommodating.

Lighting

The clear blue sky, reflected in he still water complemented the sandstone structure and nothing more was required.

Equipment

This was from a hand-held Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TZ41, a compact but great little camera!

Inspiration

I am always on the lookout for quirky shots and the reflections here were just amazing.

Editing

Simply cropping to get the best shot. In retrospect I needed something in the immediate foreground - perhaps some water reeds or similar. It’s always easy to say this after the event though!

In my camera bag

At this stage I simply had the Panasonic LUMIX. I now own a Canon 200D II with an EFS 18-55 mm lens and a 55-250 mm lens plus tripod. As a very amateur part-time photographer I just have the basics.

Feedback

Just be on the lookout for the unusual, and peep around each corner as you never know what is there.
