Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Northern Alabama, USA

Time

This was taken mid-day when the sun was on the falls. My family and I were enjoying a hike. We try to get together for day trips. We were focusing on waterfalls this day and were very happy to come across this one.

Lighting

The natural light is all I needed. In this setting it is hard to bring any additional light with me. A flash wouldn't have had any impact. The sunlight made it a calm, restful spot to stop, rest, and enjoy our surroundings.

Equipment

Just a camera and a steady hand was used.

Inspiration

Basically, beauty. The sound of the water falling and the stillness made me want to capture the moment.

Editing

No.

In my camera bag

I am pretty much of a point and shoot photographer. So, the contents of my "bag" are my camera and an extra, fully charged battery.

Feedback

Study similar photos and see what makes them outstanding. Then try to incorporate that in your photo, especially if you know what you are going to be shooting that day or night.
