Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Skibbereen Co Cork Ireland, it is of Bridge House B&B, the B&B is quite famous in the lacal area, and was won awards. It is not your typical place to stay as the inside is decorated as Victoriana and other weird and wonderful items, Mona who runs the place would be exactly the type of character you would expect to run this type of B&B.

Time

This photo was taken mid afternoon in Springtime.

Lighting

Lighting was just natural lighting and the colours tweeked afterwards.

Equipment

This picture was taken with I believe my Nikon D5100 with 18-55 lens

Inspiration

It was not my first shot of Bridge house, my first shot was also the first photo i sold, but I wanted to go back and see if I could improve it.

Editing

I just tweeked the colouring with snapseed and gave it a HDR kind of effect, many people say I over process, but it is just their opinion, I love colour in my photos and this what I see when taking the shot.

In my camera bag

just basic equipment I am not rich or do this for a living, so my Nikon D5100 and either of both my kit lens. Nothing fancy. Maybe one day if I ever make my fortune.

Feedback

Look beyond what you see. Imagine the finished photo.
