Behind The Lens

Location

Elgin, Texas downtown where two rail lines meet. A post card beauty of a small town east of Austin, Texas.

Time

Taken at about 2 in the afternoon with a good, strong, harsh sunlight.

Lighting

Lighting is just raw sunlight, unmodified and showing the heat of the Texas summer.

Equipment

Nikon D5000, Sigma 10-20mm at 10mm. Hand held.

Inspiration

Love of trains

Editing

No post processing, only a good understanding of how to properly setup the camera's JPEG settings to get the results that I wanted.

In my camera bag

On short road trips the absolute minimum, one lens, extra battery, microfiber wipes, and a filter. On major events two cameras with a different lens on each and what ever equipment I need in a photographer's vest.

Feedback

Know the territory when train hunting, carry a radio scanner if you actually want to catch a train.
