Behind The Lens
Location
This photo taken on Temperance Ave south of Church Ave in Fresno California. This is a rural area just outside of the city.Time
This photo was taken around 4:30 pm during the late winter months.Lighting
The lighting was great on this day because of the storm clouds. The clouds and lighting were the key to this pic.Equipment
As always I had my Canon T1I with me. The only lens I had was a 18-55mm.Inspiration
I was on my way home from work and had been watching the sky and the clouds for the perfect spot. When I got to the railroad tracks I saw the perfect pic. the clouds were the real inspiration for the photo.Editing
I used Lightroom 5 for the post processing. I cropped and straightened the photo. I also darkened the sky and brought out the blue in the gravel around the tracks.In my camera bag
Normally I have my T1I, a 18-55mm and a 55-250mm lensFeedback
Always have your camera with you because you never know when the next great shot will come. With this photo, I had to get on the ground so don't be afraid of getting dirty.
