Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in a forest near to the city of Ermelo, in the Netherlands,

Time

It was just past noon, on a very sunny cloudless day.

Lighting

The sun was shining full on the backside facade of the mansion, leaving hardly any shadow. There was practicaly no wind, so the water avted like a mirror, showing a perfect refelection of the house.

Equipment

My Canon EOS RP with a Tamron 18-400 mm. lens.

Inspiration

The reflection on the waterof this beautiful building, triggered me right away.

Editing

Some cropping, and I had to dim the light a bit.

In my camera bag

Camera with spare battery, and cleaning stuff.

Feedback

Shoot from more than one angle, and select the best result.
