Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at my home.

Time

This was a photo taken when I was at home at about 3:00 pm.

Lighting

I saw that the light coming from the window to the amp was really nice and would give a nice effect in a black and white photo, no other light source was used.

Equipment

I used a Sony Cybershot DSC P100 camera and no other equipment was involved.

Inspiration

I was just browsing on some photography sites where I share my photos and one of them had a contest with the title "music" so I just grabbed my music equipment, the guitar and amp, and spent some time taking shots of them.

Editing

I just did minor modifications, corrected levels, contrast, brightness and then modified it to black and white and removed noise.

In my camera bag

Now, in my camera bag, I normally have a Canon 30 D, a Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM, a Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, a Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM and a MTL 9251B Giottos Tripod

Feedback

To capture similar photos you have to train your eye for black and white photos and try to predict the outcome, not every photo looks good on black and white, some look better in color and others look better in black and white. Then you have to pay attention to light, how it hits your object and how it reflects, in photography that's very important. Have patience and try a lot of different settings, angles and light.
