Location
This photo was taken on the front porch of my house. It was a beautiful warm fall afternoon and we had all gathered on the porch while my daughter played guitar.Time
It was later in the afternoon approx. 1530hrs on a sunny fall dayLighting
It was typical warm low fall lightEquipment
This shot was a Canon 60D using a Sigma 17-70 1:2.8-4 MACRO HSM. I was shooting in sport mode approx. 5 fps. No flash used.Inspiration
My daughter was playing and having some fun flipping her hair around while playing. I saw it as a great opportunity to try some burst photos. I took a number of photos and got lucky with this one.Editing
The only post processing was sharpening a bit, didn't want it too crisp, I wanted to maintain some softness and flow in the image. Going to black and white.In my camera bag

I have always loved natural light and the softness that it gives. This photo was shot in later afternoon and light source was low on the horizon . Take lots of shots!!!
