Behind The Lens

Location

in England Lake District heritage railway

Time

Summer time

Lighting

It was a dark dingy day typical English / UK weather, however, there was texture in the atmosphere - you had to see it without colour (hence the Black and white)

Equipment

Canon 500D, handheld

Inspiration

As an engineer myself I've loved steam engines.. it is enduring, perhaps one of the key invention that provided 'steam' for human race's development

Editing

Had to adjust light balance, contract, bring out texture and shadow - all using light room.

In my camera bag

I have a telephoto lens - love this 55 to 250 Canon Lens (just the normal one), I loved the base combo of canon 500D kit lens and the 55 to 250. However, I'm slowly moving to full frame and at this point I'm experimenting.

Feedback

Get a tripod and I would say just want the movement- these engines to back and forth, so if you have time then you have multiple chance of making the shot. I guess, imagine what you want and then execute - these images can be replicated with a bit of ease.
