Behind The Lens
Location
The Cosford Airshow, England.Time
Midday.Lighting
All lighting was natural, the dark clouds and blue skies made for great contrast.Equipment
A Canon Powershot SX500 IS was used with no flash and no other equipment.Inspiration
I just love taking photographs and the Airshow was a great opportunity.Editing
I took a normal JPEG image and touched it up a little in Photoshop using the brightness and contrast tools.In my camera bag
My new Canon Dslr, 2 lenses, external flash, filters, spare batteries, mono pod and tripod.Feedback
Quick shutter speed (1/800 or higher), good observation, a focus and/or a good subject, a steady hand, an eye for detail and patience. I tend to use a UV filter now which can help take out glare from the sun.
