Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at a nursing home my grandma was staying at. The little sitting area was always a favorite spot to sit for family and visitors.

Time

I took this in the evening as my mom and I were waiting for a ride home.

Lighting

I took this just before golden hour so there was still plenty of sunlight to work with.

Equipment

I just used my simple point and shoot camera I had at the time.

Inspiration

I did this photo for a photography group I was apart of. The prompt for that day was to merger two photos together. Since this was around October if I recall,I went for a creepy ghostly vibe shot.

Editing

I took two separate photos, one of the empty bench and one of my mom sitting on the bench. In my photo editing software, I manipulated them and merged them together. Then to amp up the creepy factor, I added a rough grain texture and changed the color.

In my camera bag

Just my camera with extra batteries.

Feedback

Just keep trying and practice. It was a challenge to do but it worked out in theend. Have patience.
