Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at the Chihuly art museum near the Space Needle in Seattle Washington

Time

About mid day, but the museum is windowless so.... :)

Lighting

There is a good deal of track lighting on the exhibits, I did my best to make the most of what they had

Equipment

This was taken hand-held without a flash (as it was a museum) using a Canon RP and 24-240 RP lens

Inspiration

We were in town for a few days and the museum looked interesting

Editing

This was enhanced slightly using Lightroom

In my camera bag

These days my 'walk about' setup is a Canon RP Mirrorless with a 24-240mm lens, but I'll also carry a 5D Mk III with any number of lenses if I'm looking to shoot something specific. I do have a couple of crop sensor bodies if I want a bit more reach, the extra magnification from the 1.6 crop factor helps there. I'm usually looking for cool things at random while traveling, so I often don't plan shots beforehand - I'm a pretty impromptu/opportunistic photographer. I've found I spend the most time with a 16-35mm wide angle, various prime lenses, or some sort of zoom depending on what I'm shooting. I also tend to use super-zooms a lot so I don't have to changes lenses out in the open.

Feedback

Most museums will allow photography as long as you don't use the flash (the RP doesn't have a built-in flash anyway, so that wasn't an issue!). The trick is just to be patient so there's no one else getting in the shot...
