I was all set, to venture out into the world this afternoon, tripod in hand, to capture a magnificent landscape. The location I had in mind was a place I had driven by many times, just off of a main road. It wasn't until this fall, when the leaves began to fall from the trees, that I noticed that behind them was a great view of the lake below. I like these hidden gems....places that lie right in front of our faces, yet we pass by them daily without giving so much as a glance. I love it when I get to make a picture of one of these places, so that when I show it and people ask where it was taken, I can see the look on their faces when I tell them, and they realize they've passed by it a million times.....
So I was headed to lunch with a friend, and then on the way back I was going to stop off and capture that money shot.......then I got called in to work!
Getting off of work 3 hours past sunset doesn't help, when your shooting an unlit landscape! I'm always up for developing my
Strobist skills, but I just don't have enough Speedlites in my bag to light an entire lake......what would
David Hobby do?
Come up with a Plan B, that's what......
