I loved being able to work with a high quality camera. For the first image I focused on the sky and used photoshop to lighten the photo and help bring out the blue sky. I then took a photo inside my car using natural light to shine on the steering wheel, speedometer, and gauges. For the focus I chose a truck light and used metering to get the truck light up close. I then took the metering off and put the camera focus on the background.

I love taking pictures of old, rustic places and buildings. To show the rule of thirds with the railroad I positioned the camera low so where the road ends and the sky meets would be in the top of the picture. I also chose the camera angle to have the tower on the left and I edited the photo in photoshop to remove the words “scare tower”. In the lead room photo I parked my car to be on the left of the photo and facing toward my camera. This allowed me to have plenty of lead room in the photo.
