Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken while exploring Deep Ellum in DallasTime
This would have been very late afternoon, near sunsetLighting
Lighting was a bit muted, the sun was starting to go behind the Dallas skylineEquipment
This was taken with a Canon 70D and 18-300mm zoomInspiration
The old scooter just struck me as a cool subject, must of my shots are pretty impromptu of stuff I happen to come acrossEditing
This was massaged a bit using LightroomIn 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
Get out and explore your local city - I know a lot of people that say there's nothing to do in Dallas - they just haven't looked hard enough!
