Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken during an Airshow at my local beach, Cleethorpes.Time
I believe that it was taken during the afternoon.Lighting
As most photographers know, taking images of planes during the summer season when the sky is totally clear of clouds can be a nightmare. So I was lucky that the plane started emitting smoke to make it an easy capture.Equipment
At the time of the image, I was using a Nikon D7100 fitted with a Sigma 150 to 500mm lens.Inspiration
I was shooting at an Airshow that at many different planes attending the display.Editing
When it came to editing then all i did was to drop the highlights and opened up the shadows a touch in lightroom, then converted the image to black and white.In my camera bag
In my bag at the moment is a Nikon D750, Nikon 50mm lens, Sigma 105 macro lens, Sigma 150 to 500mm lens, Nikon 24 to 85mm lens and a 70 to 200mm lens. Various filters and 3 spare batteries.Feedback
The only advice thats worth mentioning is to just keep practicing. The more you practice then the more you learn about your camera's abilities.
