Location
I took this photo at my in-laws place in Eastern Washington State during a family gathering. We were just sitting around watching the kids play with the hose during a hot summer day.Time
This was a mid summer day. The sun was just about to start going being the mountains and the shade was creeping in on this side of the house.Lighting
The shade was starting to cover the area we were hanging out in. I thought I would snap a few more of the kids playing with the hose before the sun was gone.Equipment
This was taken with the Sony A7s. Handheld with a 24-235mm lens.Inspiration
I was just capturing candid moments during a family gathering. The babies always make for good photos but once the hose came out it was too hilarious not to get some good, high shutter speed pictures.Editing
It was pretty shady over my nephew Todd so I had to boost the brightness a little bit. Besides that, just balancing color and boosting clarity which I usually do in most photos.In my camera bag
I like to pack pretty light wherever I go. A Sony A7sii replaced my mark I, small lightweight tripod, Sony 24-235mm for coving all ranges, and a 50mm 1.4 zeiss with novaflex adapter for the crispiest pics I can get.Feedback
I love capturing "real" moments. Just keep an eye out! Everyday scenerios can be very special when you freeze certain moments. Use a high shutter and continuous shooting mode so you can burst a whole bunch of photos and pick the perfect frame.
