Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on Tunnel Hill Trail in Southern Illinois. It is an old railroad track that is over 50 miles long. I was on the trail for about 5 miles when I captured this shot.

Time

This was second place I was doing photos for the day so it was around 10am in the morning.

Lighting

I do own a Speedlight but this photo is all natural lighting, which is what I prefer when possible.

Equipment

This shot was taken with my Canon T7I and my Zomei tripod. I used my Canon 18-55mm lens.

Inspiration

As soon as I walked around one bend in the trail I saw the colors up ahead and thought this could be a really nice shot.

Editing

I did use Photoshop Express on this photo to help with lighting as it was a very overcast day.

In my camera bag

Canon T7I camera, Canon 18-55mm lens, Canon 55-250mm lens, Canon 50mm lens, Canon 24mm lens, Canon 480 Speedlight.

Feedback

Be patient with photography. Sometimes you can't realize the photos potential until after you take it off your camera.
