Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken outside of my house on an August day in Georgia, (USA)

Time

One day in late August i had a yard sale, unfortunately sales were not as grand as I predicted. So around 4:00 on a Friday i sat on the floor, then as my son played in the yard, i saw this great image, to me, representing hope.

Lighting

The lighting was entirely natural. I wanted to show what I was seeing, even to capture that very moment.

Equipment

This shot was taken on a Nikon D3100.

Inspiration

I guess what inspired me to take this shot was, never losing hope. After a long day and little sales, at my yard sale, almost giving up, and not wanting to continue, looking up at the sky for answers is just my way of reflecting. what i saw was truly inspiring to me weather i sold or not, i had a great day and my view provoked a smile. That is what i wanted to show the world.

Editing

Not at all.

In my camera bag

I carry my Nikon D3100 and a Nikon D70. with extra batteries and different lenses and filters, i carry an external flash and a tripod.

Feedback

Always be on your feet, be ready to snap when you need to and don't think too much. I'm a self taught photographer and i just go with the flow.
