Behind The Lens
Location
I took this in my flat in Jersey Channel Islands.Time
I took this after dark to make sure the lighting was as bright as possible. .Lighting
I used a light box for this shot because the light came from below and I wanted the main feature to be the colored lines on the straws.Equipment
I used a Canon 500D which was the camera I had before I upgraded to a Canon EOS 70D. I can't remember what lens I used but the Focal length was 55.Inspiration
I was in my local Supermarket and I saw these straws with colored lines on them on the shelf and I felt they could be the main feature of a really good photo.Editing
The only post-processing I did was to use the content aware feature of lightroom to remove the blemishes on the photoIn my camera bag
I have a Canon EOS 70D with a Canon EFS 18-135mm and a Canon EF 75-300 1:4-5.6 lens, and a Manfrotto tripod and monopod .Feedback
When you see a a scene that would make a good photograph always think of ways to improve it.
