Light editing to the contrast, black point, and warmth (all iPhone editing terms within their photo app).In my camera bag
Nowadays I keep the following with me: Nikon D610 with Nikon 80-400mm 4.5-5.6 zoom Nikon D800 with Nikkor 50mm 1.8D A sling strap Various cleaning tools Various other lensesFeedback
Take the photo. It doesn’t matter what you take it with, just take it. I carry what equipment I do due to the fact I’m after some specific shots which I’m happy to pull the car over for, jump out, and try to get the photo. Still, the best advice is take photos often.
