Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Ohio.

Time

I took this photo in the afternoon. It was raining for hours, and I was the only person there. I made sure to get there with enough time before the sun went down.

Lighting

I think I got lucky with the lighting. I drove through a few storms to get here, so the timing wasn’t what I had expected, and I hiked quite a ways in the rain and ended up with this shot.

Equipment

I used my Canon Rebel and Tameron wide angle lens, along with my tripod.

Inspiration

I was on a road trip to the east coast, and I had seen photos of this national park and planned a side trip for the day to go to Ohio, specifically for this waterfall. It exceeded all of my expectations!

Editing

Yes, I shoot in RAW, so I did some minor post processing, such as upping the contrast, saturation, tuning the white balance, and some vignetting.

In my camera bag

I always have my Canon Rebel, 50mm lens, wide angle lens, telephoto lens, extra SD cards, and a trash bag.

Feedback

I would advise researching the different hiking trails and planning for all types of weather!
