Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the local cemetery.

Time

This image was taken around sunset in the middle of the summer.

Lighting

I wanted the Sun behind the mirror, both to intentionally wash-out some of the detail behind the mirror, but to also be a metaphor that I was going towards the light/ a brighter future.

Equipment

I used my Canon T3 Rebel with 18-55mm kit lens.

Inspiration

I was in a low spot in my life after a divorce, and this idea came to me one day, and has since helped me through many trying times. He is always closer than you think.

Editing

This is straight from the camera. I lucked out. I did however, make other copies that used filters in B&W, as well as an ‘antiqued’ appearance.

In my camera bag

I have my Canon T3 Rebel, with its two kit lenses. I have other low-cost accessories, such as flash diffusers, remote, and macro extension tubes.

Feedback

Just get out there and snap away. One thing I’ve learned- your style may not be everyone’s style, but don’t ever let that stop you. One day you’ll create something that will move someone in some way. And that’s what it’s also about.
