Behind The Lens
Location
In Bali, Indonesia.Time
It was a rainy morning.Lighting
It was cloudy, which is preferred since I wanted to darken the background.Equipment
I actually used a tripod for this one and a remote release.Inspiration
Since it was raining all morning I decided shooting landscapes was out of the question. Being so obsessed with photography though I couldn't relax and have a lazy day in our beautiful rented villa. Instead I persuaded my poor husband to jump in the cold swimming pool and jump out of it as high as he could master.Editing
I darkened the background even further as I didn't want it to be a distraction.In my camera bag
3 different lenses, a zoom, a 50mm 1.4 prime for portraits and an ultra wide for landscapes. Also ND filters such as the 3-stop and the 10-stop and a CPL.Feedback
This was a fun, no pressure, spontaneous kind of shoot, and these can sometimes provide better results that elaborate settings. Also, focusing and freezing the water droplets can give a more dynamic result.
