Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken at my house, days after our pet poodle gave birth to five cute puppies. It was her first time giving birth and was having a hard time, so I helped her along.Time
This was taken on midday.Lighting
This was all ambient light. Lighting above and behind her is coming from outside our house. A dark gate as a background, I turned this photo into black and white to add more emotion.Equipment
I shot his with a Leica D-Lux 6.Inspiration
I always love having emotions on a photograph. This is my niece holding one of our puppies. Her affection to the puppy is very much portrayed here. And upon seeing the dramatic tinge of light lighting them up, I quickly took a shot of them.Editing
I shot this on a black and white mode on camera, did some dodging and burning some shadow.In my camera bag
I got a lot of camera gear, but very often I travel light just my Leica D-Lux 6 for nearby photo walks. When I get out to travel, I add one Canon DSLR, an ultrawide lens, tripod and filters for landscape shooting.Feedback
I love taking photos of kids, because their emotions is so real and genuine.
