Behind The Lens
Location
Nowhere exceptional, it was at a friends house.Time
It was during the day, as the lounge room faces south, there was not much light.Lighting
Straight flash, there was no added lights or refectors.Equipment
My old and trusty Canon 300D, Canon 18-55 mm lens and a flash.Inspiration
My son was playing with the kittens on the couch, as this one has long fur my son was combing him a Mohawk, he was soon falling asleep so I grabbed the camera.Editing
Yes, I cloned out a cushion in the background, cleaned up and darkened the couch, applied levels to bring out the colour of the kitten's fur and eyes and a touch of vibrancy.In my camera bag
My camera equipment is limited, so I make-do with what I have, camera, 18-55 mm & 70-200 mm lenses, flash and a few filters, spare cards and a spare battery.Feedback
The most important thing I ever learnt was to know your camera intimately all it's foibles and strengths whether film or digital, Be open to opportunities around you, I still kick myself for missed captures especially when I thought I wouldn't need a camera with me.
