Behind The Lens

Location

It's four photos. Two taken Lieksa and two in Kuopio, Finland.

Time

-

Lighting

Lighting is simple stripbox on front of the subject in all the photos.

Equipment

AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II at 200mm and f/8, 1/160sec, ISO 100. The same settings were used in all the photos. Flashes were cheap Yongnuo ones.

Inspiration

This is pretty common way to take family portraits. In a portrait there is my sisters son, my son, me and my father. The age difference was so good that I good not resist to take this image.

Editing

I combined the four images to one picture. Desatured it. Usually these pictures are black and white but I liked to keep some colour in it.

In my camera bag

Nikon D800 with various lenses

Feedback

There is a lighting diagram in my blog: http://torturedmind.org/men/ One light setup thats easy to setup.
