Behind The Lens

Location

At a friends house after a BBQ.

Time

In the evening about 10pm?

Lighting

Just the light from a fire.

Equipment

Fuji XE2 and XF35 f1.4. Black & White pp LR

Inspiration

It was the end of a lovely party with friends, everyone was relaxed and it spoke about the moment.

Editing

Black & White, adjusted the highlights & shadows and added a Vignette in LR.

In my camera bag

Now, a Fuji XPRO2 with a XF23f1.4, XF35f2 & XF56f1.2. A couple of polarising filters and batteries and cleaning stuff. Business cards and a note book and pen.

Feedback

Look how the light falls on people's faces. Look at the shadows and highlights. Expose for the highlights and try blend in without being noticed. Don't worry about the ISO. The BW image will hide any noise issues.
