Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken at a bridge called the Big River Crossing. It is country’s longest active rail/bicycle/pedestrian bridge in Memphis, TN. There is a church that overlooks this part of the river and I was on their front lawn.

Time

Spring evening on 5/17/2020 around 7:45pm. It had just rained and it was very damp and muggy outside. The mosquitos were biting as I was snapping away so I quickly snapped a few.

Lighting

Thunderstorms during the day or early evening when the sun is back out always provides the perfect backdrop for a sunset photo. Awesome evening colors in the skies.

Equipment

I use a Sony DSC HX80 compact point and shoot camera. No tripod.

Inspiration

The Mississippi River.

Editing

I use Skylum software for my post processing.

In my camera bag

I don't have a bag.

Feedback

Sometimes as a photographer you just know you have to be out there at this certain time. This was one of those evenings that I thought if I wasn't there I was going to miss something spectacular! You know what I mean?
