Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo on a damwall nearby ou house. The Jack Russels love water and to chase the frogs in the dam. They love water and they love to play in water.

Time

This photo was taken later afternoon, about 5:30 pm.

Lighting

I wanted this image to look as natural as possible. I did not use a flash, used a F5 to blur out the background and 1/250 to reduce the chance of movement.

Equipment

I took the photo, leaning against the damwall, waiting for Bubbles to stand as still as possible. I took this image with my first camera, a Sony A270.

Inspiration

Dogs are an inspiration..... They are natural and love to be who they are. No pretending. Reflections, to me, are always beautiful.

Editing

The only post-processing I did, was to make the background a bit darker.

In my camera bag

In my Camera bag now, I have my Canon 6D, with 24-105mm lens. My Canon 600D with 55-250mm lens as well as a 50mm lens for both cameras. I have a flash, with flash defuser. Lighting gear (2 soft boxes and 2 LED lights).

Feedback

Patience, and a lot of it as well.
