Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken at my home in Illinois.Time
I remember that I took this photo in the evening. I got all ready to go out and wanted to take a mysterious picture.Lighting
I wanted the lighting to be a little bit darker to add to the mystery. I did not want shadows cast on my face, but I did want me to "pop" in the picture.Equipment
This shot was a very simple one. Believe it or not, it is from my phone, but my phone was made to take great pictures.Inspiration
Honestly, I would have to say that my outfit inspired the photo. I also wanted to try a smile that was not my usual "teeth grin" smile. I wanted to look more mysterious and devious.Editing
I took several shots to get the one that I wanted. I wanted it to be perfect.In my camera bag
I usual have my older version of a Cannon.Feedback
I think it has to do with the lighting and making your object stand out and be the center of attention.
