Behind The Lens

Location

I was walking around Chicago randomly and found this old church.

Time

I think it was around 3pm

Lighting

It was very dark except the very bright stain glass windows to have to do HDR for this shot

Equipment

at the time I was using a Nikon D80, shit it with a Sigma 10-20 lens

Inspiration

what isnt there to be inspired by in this imagine, also the Priest where singing alone.

Editing

I did HDR for this interior shot, used Light Room and Photoshop. I did many layers in Photoshop for ceilings, and windows, and paintings.

In my camera bag

Nikon D7000, Sigma 10-20, 18-105 VR, Sigma 70-200 2.8, 50 1.8, Hoya ND 400 filter, Promote control, Speedlight SB600, pair of pocket wizards

Feedback

check out the place first do some scouting, see if you can use a tripod or not. If not do a test run first for right settings, then come back when nobody is at the church and shoot. :-) Def has to be HDR in conditions like these.
