Behind The Lens

Location

Taken at the abandoned Cresson State Prison in Pittsburg PA.

Time

Late afternoon

Lighting

Low light afternoon indoors through a window

Equipment

Nikon D7200 with a macro lens and tripod.

Inspiration

The way the ball was just in the window made me think of a concept of days gone by. So random and the lighting really made it look furlong but still wistful that someone would come back and remember it, maybe even go just a few more rounds for old times sake.

Editing

No post processing needed.

In my camera bag

Extra lenses, filters for extra visual enhancements. Spare batteries, chargers and cleaning equipment incase environments gets things a little messy. Scarves to give extra cover from intense lighting and reflectors to get an extra soft light to an object.

Feedback

Nostalgia imagery is a good way to bring an other wise dry shot to be an eye catcher. Especially of something that reminds of childhood or just youth in general. An old date night shoe or that old razer that reminds someone of an old memory. Simple old toys or games can be a memory spark that inspires the viewer to pay more attention by going back memory lane. Emotions are a big driver when wanting to go for that "memorable piece" that gets people sharing with others.
