Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Monsanto Forest Park, the largest green patch that the beautiful city of Lisbon has.

Time

Taken during a warm summer afternoon, after an amazing stroll through the forest.

Lighting

I love natural lighting, especially that one right before the sun sets - the magic hour. Everything seems to slow down around this time and the lighting leaves a special feeling of wonder and dream.

Equipment

For this photo, I used a Canon EOS 700D with a EF-S 18-55mm IS STM lens. My companion on all my afternoon walks.

Inspiration

There was a cool breeze in the air, and the grass was dancing to it's tune.

Editing

Usually late afternoon already gives that warmth and softness tone to a photo, but I wanted that green to really pop and give it a natural yet FRESH look. To transmit serenity and energy and the same time. So if you find yourself tired, after a long day, or in need of a little boost, just gaze upon this photo, and it will recharge your batteries full, yet making you feel calmer than ever.

In my camera bag

My trust old friend, my Canon EOS 700D, and my Polaroid LightMixer 630 SL for unique moments.

Feedback

Stop. Look around. Observe nature. Watch how the wind plays with leaves, and how the lighting hits and makes everything shimmer. Feel what is happening, be a part of it. Take it in. Point your camera and... capture the magic. It is all around us.
