Behind The Lens

Location

This shot has been taken in Las Vegas, in Bellagio mall.

Time

I suppose in first afternoon, exif data are related to CET.

Lighting

Light came from big Bellagio's window and design texture on the water surface. A ray of sunshine hit the flow in foreground. I use a very fast shutter speed to freeze the water splash and open to the maximum aperture for a better bokeh. I subtract a 2/3 underexposing to hide in the shadows the chaotic background.

Equipment

Nikon 90 free hands with 28-70 Tamron

Inspiration

I was attracted from water flows and reflections on the bottom of the pool when two young ladies sitting on the other side of the pool. The scene was complete, relaxing moment on aquatic calm... When I see the shot I was a little bit frustrating for too much colors on the frame. B&W conversion needed.

Editing

I open the shot in Silver Exef Pro 2 and convert but saving the golden mosaic on the bottom of the pool, nice! I missed your "Selective color" contest.....

In my camera bag

Now: As body: Nikon D610 + D90 As lens: Nikon 16-35 f4; Tamron 28-70 f2.8 and Tamron 70-220 f2.8. Lensbaby Spark; Vintage Trioplan 100 f2.8

Feedback

Just observing and by inspired ;-)
