Behind The Lens
Location
North Lake, CaliforniaTime
Water stills at sunrise, producing mirror effect. Try it, just don't skip rocks during your photo.Lighting
There was light exposing the entire scene, which intrigued me, naturally, as sunrise comes but once a day and if I did not act quickly, the joke would have been on me.Equipment
An antigravity support system, an extension of my eye with appropriate lens and iris, and a recording media to simulate the memory my mind has forgotten. All name brand, of course.Inspiration
Well, I had brought along a camera, lugging it miles into the wilderness, and all of a sudden, like a beam from on high, my muse whispered in my ear some very funny things and then suggested I set my photographing apparatus in a peculiar spot and set the shutter on rapid fire to expose exactly one image, recording it on a digital media in a way to preserved for the ages.Editing
Loaded image on Camera, utilizing appropriate software and wizardry produced above image.In my camera bag
A hammer for breaking ice. Pliers for twisting arms. A knife to cut a rug. Peanut butter and jelly, 'cause that goes with everything!Feedback
Don't try. It was too cold, too wet, and you have to be stuck outside without cell phone reception. Ugh!
