A landscape of Rushden (UK) at sunset, I love the colours over here

This is a bridge used to board canoes on the lake, the structure is reflecting off the water.

This photo was taken in a nature park and represents people being there for each other.

This is something that I made for a black and white photo competition.

This was taken by someone I was with at Wrest Park, Bedfordshire.

A shot at the sky with trees in the foreground.

Taken on my birthday when I went on a walk.

This was taken in the pond with a waterproof cased camera.

This was taken with my phone looking up at a large tree in a nature park.

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at home, it was on a second floor window.

Time

This was taken around mid-day, just after I came back from taking some other photos actually.

Lighting

Rich, mellow lighting is good for this. It's often spotted around mid-day where I live.

Equipment

I used my phone (Nokia 3.1), and a tri-pod with a mobile phone extension.

Inspiration

I quite liked the lighting leaking from the side of the window's blinds and decided to photograph it.

Editing

I don't normally do any post-processing with photos that I take, my most recent photos didn't need any editing at all. However my first uploaded photos on Viewbug did (as I wasn't as experienced in finding good photo opportunities).

In my camera bag

I normally have either a handheld tri-pod, or one that stands up on it's own (depending how stable I need the camera/phone to be). I often carry a small cloth so I can clean the lens on my phone/camera.

Feedback

Position the camera to the right or the left of the blinds (depending on where the lighting is richer and more mellow). This photo might not need much editing, mine didn't need any. But if the photo is a bit dull: You could turn up the photo's saturation.
