Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Humber College where I was taking a digital photography course on Lighting.

Time

This was taken in studio during our textures assignment. I ended up bringing an entire bag full of spices I had bought just to take pictures.

Lighting

We used a single light that illuminated the setup from the side to bring out the texture.

Equipment

Used my Nikon D5200 and my at the time very new AF-S Micro Nikkor 105mm 1:2.8 Lens.

Inspiration

I love using everyday objects that we might see often but never look closely at. That's why I love Macro photography.

Editing

A little bit of photoshop to sharpen and crop was used.

In my camera bag

My Nikon D5200 and my AF-S Micro Nikkor 105mm 1:2.8 lens.

Feedback

To bring out texture always light your subject from the side.
