Behind The Lens
Location
Photo was taken back in 2012 at the Sunderland Air Show.Time
It was taken on a warm and overcast summer afternoon. The light was perfectly moody to capture the smoke from the Red Arrows as they descended from a height with such precision.Lighting
The lighting was natural with potential rain threatening but never came.Equipment
Used my trusty SONY SLT-A35. My aperture was set to f/4.5 with an ISO of 100. I used my telezoom lens 750/10 shutter speed 1/1000. I used a continuous shoot to catch the right moment.Inspiration
This was a new subject for me and wanted to experiment using the equipment I had with pleasing results.Editing
Used Adobe Lightroom to adjust clarity.In my camera bag
My bag normally consists of 2 lenses and a mix of filters. My bag goes wherever I go...Feedback
I found using a continuous shot a great help as the aircraft were traveling at high speeds. Experimenting is key to knowing your DSLR’s boundaries.
