Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was a spur of the moment thing, we were being touristy in north London, I live in south London, and noticed the cool reflection in my friends sunglasses ... I lined it up and tada! The colour version is also in my collection

Time

Mid afternoon

Lighting

Taken on auto setting without flash

Equipment

Shot with my canon 1100D and standard lens

Inspiration

As I say it wasn't really planned, my friend with the glasses is super photogenic anyway and the other shots from that day are mostly architecture

Editing

I used Adobe photo shop for iPad (sorry I forget which version it was a while ago) played with the contrast and various black and white effects

In my camera bag

My canon 110D and standard lens, I should use my tripod more but don't have the patience!

Feedback

Don't force the shot too much, I try to capture what's there! Also don't give up on shots that originally don't look fabulous, there's always edits!
