Doing a photo shoot in the Strip District in Pittsburgh I saw the potential for something unique. Proof that there is beauty even in a mud puddle.

It's the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in our City of Pittsburgh, home of the Steelers! Point park is the first thing you see when you come out of the Fort Pitt Tunnel and at night it makes for a beautiful backdrop to my talented contortionists.

Time

This photo was taken after the the sun went down, Pittsburgh has some beautiful lighting opportunities.

Lighting

Im a huge fan of silhouette shots. When there is light that is beautiful I move around until I can find just the right angle to outline my subject.

Equipment

I used my my point and shoot Canon G15 for this shot.

Inspiration

Anytime I plan on taking photos I go in with an open mind and experiment with all of my surroundings. Then, whatever happens happens.

Editing

There was zero editing done to this photo.

In my camera bag

This photo was a few years ago. These days I have my Nikon D7500 in tow for shoots. I have 3 lenses presently. 70-200mm, 18-55mm & 70-300mm. There are also "cheat sheets" in my bag as just recently I have started shooting more in manual mode. Filters, reflectors and lip gloss also can be found in my bag. :)

Feedback

Just look for a bright back lit backdrop and play with height! I generally get pretty low to the ground.
