Behind The Lens

Location

We were at a park with play equipment for children on the South Coast of NSW (Australia)

Time

It was an overcast morning around 9am.

Lighting

I remember there was a dark line of trees behind the park so I spot focused on the tap at the time.

Equipment

Hand held. Nikon D3100.

Inspiration

My grandson had never seen a water fountain/bubbler before and couldn't quite grasp the concept at first.. as he was only just 4yrs old.. the multi tasking of pressing the button to make the water come out AND drink at the same time was a tad challenging for him... and then he kept biting the water LOL...

Editing

Very little... I'm not too skilled in the post-processing department.... I think I just converted it to B&W and added a vignette.

In my camera bag

I don't really have a "bag"... my camera is usually in a PJ case in my shoulder bag, never far from my side.

Feedback

Trying to capture the innocence and spontaneity of children can be challenging - I take many pics in the hope that all the elements might magically come together in one image....
