Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the hallway of my apartment

Time

During a cold winter evening of boredom

Lighting

Did not use any special lighting to capture this image

Equipment

Used a D5100 Nikon with tripod

Inspiration

Get a Grip was created out of the sensation that there is always something trying to get a grasp on you. Be that work, life, relationships, money et cetera.

Editing

I used photoshop to give the illusion of floating. I took the original shot standing on a stool which I deleted using the program. Then I took individual shots of my arms and copied them on to the original photo.

In my camera bag

Nothing out of the ordinary. Camera, tripod and my imagination

Feedback

I normally create a photo out of a feeling or experience. By doing this I'm able to bring to life an idea. Whatever the end result, it is an expression of a moment in my life which I'm able to share in the hopes that other people can identify with.
