You have given 2020 a positive swing that is really (nice) positive, a contribution to the Year 2020 Collection. As always, the competition will be tough, which, as an added consequence, makes a possible victory taste very sweet. Good luck and probably for the … time: Happy New Year and stay healthy in 2021!

Behind The Lens

Location

This is the view from my bedroom window (Scarborough Ontario, Canada) I often take shots from my window as it opens wide and provides a second story perspective

Time

A lovely quiet evening, the moon was full and rising and always look so huge when this low in the sky I just had to snap some pics

Lighting

Although it looks like a picture of the sun, it is actually the moon The winter sky and moon came out very bland in the original shot but everything came together in photo editing

Equipment

My Nikon

Inspiration

I take many shots from this vantage point (second story bedroom) The sun and moon rise here, the wild life that visits our area is plentiful and the seasonal changes make it a superb spot for photography

Editing

The original was quite bland and had no focal point so, I played with the image in editing -cropped the image, bumped up the saturation, contrast and changed the light to make the image pop

In my camera bag

Very light packer; camera, gorilla grip, extra batteries, strap

Feedback

You don't have to travel far (or at all) to get great shots and practice your photographic skills Take advantage of all the opportunities right close by and try out different perspectives
