Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my home. My daughter is one of my favorite models, and this day she had a new hat that she wanted to wear everywhere, I couldn't resist a shot to capture this moment and memory.

Time

I took this photo mid afternoon , if I remember correctly.

Lighting

I don't believe I used any flash with this photo, the natural light was coming in the window just perfectly.

Equipment

I used a Nikon D3100 with my sigma 70-200mm f2.8 lens. Just goes to show that a good prime lenses are key, a basic DSLR camera with a good lens to get quality photos.

Inspiration

The moment and the memory inspired me to take this shot.

Editing

I turned this photo mono, to capture all of the detail and texture. Usually when I post edit my photos I don't do too much, other than cropping, and slightly adjusting shadows, highlights and contrast.

In my camera bag

In my bag I keep, my Nikon D3100, Nikon 50mm lens, sigma 70-300mm lens, sigma 70-200 f2.8 lens, a strobe light and Gary Fong type diffuser. extra battery , battery charger and extra SD cards.

Feedback

Natural light and a good prime lens.
