Behind The Lens

Location

In my studio.

Time

Afternoon.

Lighting

It was shot using Alien Bee strobes. The chameleon was set on an Ikea black reflective coffee table, purchased as part of a web series set.

Equipment

I used a canon 5d Mark II handheld.

Inspiration

I believe art is the often the combination of compliments and contrast. In this case a studio photo of a lizard on a mirror.

Editing

I did minor retouching in Photoshop, contrast, dodge, burn and saturation.

In my camera bag

I normally have a few lenses and a half dozen strobes... and a chameleon.

Feedback

Combine the unlikely to get something original.
