Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken at the Rhyl Air show in North Wales, we had been on the prom for most of the day and made a dash to the car park on the roof of the white rose shopping centre as the car park closed closet to the airshow finishing! It turned out to be a great location and a great spot!

Time

It was around 5 pm

Lighting

Iso 80-100 is always good on a bright day but if your unsure use auto take test shots before the action starts in different parts of the display area to get your settings right

Equipment

This shot was taken on my Panasonic bridge camera DMC-FZ45 a camera I still own today that tags along side my dslr. For a small sensor the Panasonic is great all be a little slower to react but the shots speak for themselves! This was taken hand held no extra ecuipment

Inspiration

I'm a fan of aviation and the red arrows are a must to any photographer new or experienced! I just loved the way the arrows homed into view at a great angle and position!

Editing

Yes but only some basic tweaks using Windows photo gallery!

In my camera bag

Canon 100d with 50mm 1.8, 18-55 kit lens and 70-300 usm is. Also the Panasonic DMC-FZ45.

Feedback

Keep your eye on the action frame your shots and take some burst shots as you pan with the action! Use auto mode if your a novice or tweak the manual settings and get creative for those more experienced togs. Test shots before the action will ensure you get the settings sorted!
