Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken at home in the garden.Time
It was about mid day but the light was too harsh so I had to block the light from the windowsLighting
I originally had the lighting coming through the door of the summer house but it was too harsh so it was blocked by sheets.Equipment
To get the effect that I was right in front of the dart I tied it with a piece of string to the ceiling of the summer house and used Photoshop to mask it out.Inspiration
I'm inspired by Jordi Koalitic's shots and the creativity of them so I had a go at one of my ownEditing
I had the dart attached to a piece of string to give it the effect it was in flight and I used Photoshop to mask out the string to give it the illusion that I got the shot while it was in flightIn my camera bag
I normally have my 75 - 300mm lens, my 15 - 75mm and my 50mm lens along with a tripod.Feedback
It's a very easy illusion to do, you just need a rough knowledge of Photoshop to mask things out and something very thin to hold the object in place that'll be easier to edit out.
