Behind The Lens

Location

This is a shot of the waterway leading up to Endicott Arm Glacier in Alaska

Time

This was taken in late morning

Lighting

It was an overcast morning, so light was very muted

Equipment

This was taken with a Canon RP and 24-240mm lens

Inspiration

The cruise we were on was supposed to go all the way up to the glacier, but there was too much ice floating around so this is as far as we got - it was still a pretty view

Editing

This was massaged 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

This is a pretty impromptu travel shot...
