Behind The Lens

Location

I was on my daily walk with my sister when this photo was taken at the Coon Rapids Dam Park deep in the forest.

Time

My daily walk starts about 6 am so I'm able to catch the sunrise. But I live in Minnesota so there are many mornings we have no sun showing because of clouds. When the sun does shine I'm able to get wonderful shots.

Lighting

The sun streams looked different depending on the angle I was at as they bounced off the light fog. I took several photos, standing, couching down, and different angles. It was still fairly dark in the forest so the streams of light looked like spot lights.

Equipment

On my 5 mile daily walk it's to heavy for me to carry my equipment but I never leave home with a camera. I simply use a Canon G7X that is lightweight but I think it takes great shots.

Inspiration

The beauty, it looked so enchanting.

Editing

Only lightened a bit due to the darkness in the forest.

In my camera bag

In my bag I have a Canon EOS 70D with several lens. Out and about daily I have a Canon G7X.

Feedback

Get outside daily things always look different depending on the weather, and you will feel awesome.
