A horse I once knew named Lily. She isn't fond of photographs. This was one rare moment I was able to capture her beauty and strength.

Behind The Lens

Location

This is a view of the staircase which winds up The Rookery building redesigned by Frank Lloyd Wright, in Chicago.

Time

It was midday, during a guided tour of the building.

Lighting

FLW was a master of light. You will not be disappointed trying to find light in this building.

Equipment

It was handheld without flash, looking upward into the staircase.

Inspiration

It was actually my wife who suggested I take the photo when she looked up into it.

Editing

Yes, I used Lightroom to bring out the tones and adjusted with split-toning.

In my camera bag

Camera body and a couple of lenses.

Feedback

All viewing is guided if you want to get to the upper floors to take something similar. Increase your ISO and accept grain. In my opinion, the grain adds to the character of it.
