Same photographer See all Behind The Lens

Just the Rio Grande Gorge bridge all by happenstance during a 2 week long camping trip across the country.

Same creek that was hidden as my other just a different angle to show the absolute beauty of Texas

Can never go wrong with a good Eagle picture.

Out on a hike and found most of the small lake filled with Lilly pads that have stared to wither.

Didn't have my camera for this beautiful shot only a cell phone but couldn't pass up taking a snap.

Follow a river road stopped to enjoy nature.

This is a retake after a few years and a few cameras. And I'm not disappointed with the result.

A fallen tree next to a lot of life in nature. the natural cycle of things.

Another Christmas in Houston. So happy to be out here.

My favorite is B&W Nature and this has so much that I love. Bright sun, great contrast, and beautiful limbs.

We have a house full of antiques and this is from me practicing still life

Behind The Lens

Location

This is from Spring, Texas. Out of my backyard a day after the large storm that swept Texas.

Time

Sunrise, the exact time I couldn't tell you. The dogs were itching to get out of the house. So before work I was able to get this snap.

Lighting

It's no secret the Sunrise is Texas can be amazing and this was no exception. The light against the clouds made a great picture

Equipment

This was handheld and with the closest camera, my Nikon D5600. Unsure of the lens I used.

Inspiration

Just the pure beauty of this sunrise. After having no power or water for multiple days it was nice to see something that makes you feel warm.

Editing

I shoot raw so I have the ability. Some small edits made to this.

In my camera bag

I carry a wide range of lenses and some extra batteries. I was taught long ago when I use to shoot film that I should have my camera close no matter where I go. I try my best to keep doing that. So my bag is always with most of my gear.

Feedback

Timing is something you need. This was a right time right place deal but sunrise shots are always timing. Make sure you know basics and work your settings.
