Behind The Lens

Location

Taken hiking the way up to 'the Crack', in Killarney Provincial Park, ON, Canada

Time

Peak of autumn burst. When the forest releases it's auburn colours and prepares as in a great finale - the entrance of winter

Lighting

Was a cloudy day but overall the light was stunning (white) and strongly reflected against the white quartzites.

Equipment

Mobile phone (16:9) 12 MP

Inspiration

The contrast of bright autumn against clear clean quartzite boulders

Editing

Just enhanced a small bit the light - as you can see couldn't do much because the sky was already grey-white

In my camera bag

none - had sandwiches and water!

Feedback

Being aware of the contrasts that nature already offers is the best way to go
