Behind The Lens
Location
This self portrait was taken in my backyard.Time
At dusk.Lighting
Our home is surrounded by trees, which are then surrounded by farmland. We have such beautiful sunsets and the way the setting sun peaks through the trees is always so beautiful.Equipment
I used my Mark IV on a tripod, with the Canon app on my iPhone to be sure I was in focus and in the frame.Inspiration
The lighting. The moody feel in that corner of our yard reflects my emotions in this season of life currently.Editing
I used black and white for this image but enhanced the highlighting to give my skin a bit of a glow, as well as enhanced the shadows to give it a more moody feel.In my camera bag
Canon Mark IV, canon 50mm, Sigma Art series 30mm and a Canon 80D as a second body.Feedback
Try to provoke emotion in your images and be open when describing the emotion you were going for.
