This kind of pic can be taken at any time of day :), I think this was in the morning.Lighting
I just used natural lighting in the shade, like I do with all my "food" photography.Equipment
Hand held Nikon D7000. Lens f/3.5 - 5.6 18 - 105mm.Inspiration
I love "colour splash" images and always looking for opportunities to take advantage of an image I think will work.Editing
Very simple post production in photoshop using layers and brush tool to create the splashes of yellow paint. About 5 minutes post production max.In my camera bag
My Nikon full frame D610, f/2.8 50mm prime lens, f2.8 24-70mm lens and a longer lens f/4 70 - 300mm or f/2.8 70 - 200mm. Nikon Flash SB 700. Portable collapsible light diffuser by Gary Fong. Spare batteries. Spare memory cards. Eye drops. Bottled water. Spare business cards.Feedback
Look for bright colours where contrast to black and white part of the image would work. Such as flowers, bright clothing, coloured umbrellas, anything to do with paint, eyes, colourful butterflies, red lipstick, fruit etc etc. Build a board on Pinterest to inspire you to see these type images.
