Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken on a walk way in south eastern kansas. The walk way is a very long winding path specifically for people to walk, run or ride their bikes.Time
The time of day i believe was in the afternoon, just got done with classes at the community college. I was on a walk with my then boyfriend and his friends. I was lost in the clouds, taking many pictures of just about everything.Lighting
it was a very cloudy day, and there wasn't too much light. I had to get the position of the people in front of me walking just right though, i kept having to slow down to match their stride.Equipment
For this picture I used a Kodak Easyshare C643 Zoom Digital Camera. I didn't use my reflector or use flash.Inspiration
Sometimes i have those days, where everything is so unique, and you see pictures everywhere. i don't know how to explain it, but if you are a photographer or enjoy special moments then you know what i mean. Everything seems zoomed in. i was surrounded by nature, taking picture after picture.Editing
i made the picture black and white, because of the cloudy day it was already pretty dim lighting. but i also wanted it the picture to say something besides just people walking under trees. and changing the picture to have a different effect gave that picture exactly what i needed.In my camera bag
The camera that I use is Canon PowerShot ELPH 330 HS Black. The only other thing I carry in my bag is a makeshift sunlight reflector using cardboard, a white piece of paper, and aluminum. I usually only use it for portraits.Feedback
I say just go about your day and do your own thing. I often just stumble across moments that are beautiful with nature just shining at its best. Make sure you have your camera on you always, you really never know when something will catch your eye that you want to capture. Also make sure you camera is completely charged, many times I have seen a perfect moment, only to realize that my camera was dead or had no room on my memory card. So when those moments do come, because they will, you will be prepared. Then for me, it’s just more of you either find the perfect angle and setting or you don’t. Then you learn from that for your next moment.
