Behind The Lens

Location

I took this in my Granddaughter's bedroom.

Time

In the afternoon

Lighting

It was just you typical bedroom ceiling light.

Equipment

I'm embarrassed to say... I used her phone.

Inspiration

Well, that kitten is so doggone cute! Her name is Ash, as she's the color of ashes. My granddaughter had the idea of trying to get her to sit in that cute little chair.

Editing

I cropped it to get a better look at Ash while leaving just enough of the chair so you would know she was sitting on one. After that I adjusted the lighting, contrast and shadows to bring out the details Ash's fur, her toes and those eyes!

In my camera bag

Oh dear... You've caught me in another major embarrassment --- I don't have a bag. At least, not any more. I used to, but it fell of the back of a pick-up when we were moving and didn't survive the highway at 60 MPH. I carry my phone. EVERYWHERE!

Feedback

Be patient: kittens aren't fond of posing. Take a lot of pictures: all but one of the will be off just enough to be trash. Take a lot of pictures: ONE of them will be just what you're shooting for! Pay attention to the post-processing: what you do or don't do can make a good picture great.
