Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken outside of my daughters apartment building. My young granddaughters where outside playing and we were just trying out new Picture ideas for something different and yet entertaining.

Time

This picture was taken about mid-day and it was an extremely nice bright summer day!

Lighting

This picture wasn't planned out with any special lighting it just happened. Being very new at taking pictures inside and out, every picture taken is a new experience as well as a new challenge.

Equipment

This particular picture is taken with a cell phone camera, before I purchased my Pentax K-50. I still take pictures with my cell phone in a pinch, but take the new camera just about everywhere!

Inspiration

The tree seemed to be a nice accent to the idea of taking an entertaining picture of my grandchildren. Even though is was taken with a cell phone camera it still turned out to be a great shot for such a small camera!

Editing

None

In my camera bag

About a year ago I purchased the Pentax K-50, however I am still learning about it. It has a ton of capabilities and features that I am only beginning to unlock and learn about.

Feedback

As I am still new at this, the one thing that I do a lot is look around at the settings and surroundings inside and out, and look for things that are different. Always look always be ready, never assume it isn't or will not be a good picture, just point and shoot. The old saying that "A picture is worth a thousand words" only touch's the surface of what you can do with any camera. It doesn't take a million dollar camera for a good picture it takes a million people with cameras to take "Pictures worth a Million"!
