Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my temporary home studio. In other words: It was taken on a way too low coffee table covered in backdrop cloth, and with a studio light.

Time

This shot was taken around noon, but since it was a studio setting it can be done at any time of the day.

Lighting

This shot was done during the day. I could experiment with studio flashes and sunlight coming through the window.

Equipment

Nikon D700 Lens: 18.0-105.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 Focal length: 35,0 mm 1/250 sec; f/9; ISO 100

Inspiration

I love books, and as you can see these are pretty worn out. It might be because a doberman I once had was a little thief and chewed on everything. One of these books is actually an old photo album that my grandmother left me.

Editing

I added a texture layer, but erased the part covering the books.

In my camera bag

I try not to bring too much gear as it often takes the focus off the shooting. I don't want to waste time choosing between different lenses, and carrying only one lens helps me develop my skills for that particular lens. I normally carry my Nikon D700 and only one lens, usually my 24.0-70.0 mm f/2.8.

Feedback

The best advice is to take your time. Experiment with different light settings, try both natural light and studio flashes. Take multiple shots and have fun!
