Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my home in the front room. The blue blanket is actually a moving quilt we got when we got our Great Dane, keep slobber off the carpet. . The red blanket we got free and I thought it would be good for Zelda and man were we right it became her security blanket right away. When she wants Milo to leave her alone she will get on the blanket and he knows to leave her alone. See how happy she looks.

Time

I was watching TV and I noticed the contrast between the red and blue blankets so I quickly grabbed my camera and snapped a few photos. I keep my camera within arms length all the time because you never know when an opportunity comes along. Photo was taken in the morning just before our walk. Coffee first and then walk down by the river.

Lighting

Morning light coming from the East through the two front windows 43" X 63".

Equipment

Was shot with a Canon T5i with 55 - 250 mm lens

Inspiration

I am always shooting pictures everywhere we go and not just one or two at a time I like to take several so I have a variety to choose from. Walk along the river with the dogs, riding the motorcycle up through the mountains, sitting around the house just watching the dogs play, any time is a good opportunity for a great photo so my motto is always have your camera ready.

Editing

No touch ups on this photograph but I do have photo shop on my computer and have used it on other photographs. Sometimes it is hard to get everything to line up perfect when you are shooting so a little help once in a while helps.

In my camera bag

I carry a cannon T5i with a cannon 55-250mm lens, cannon 55mm lens, Altura 8 mm fish eye lens, Altura electronic flash, Polaroid close up lens, 10X, 4X, 2X, 1+. Also I carry a Cannon S5IS Camera, lets not forget our ZOMEI tripod. Camera cleaning kit.

Feedback

Be patient and be prepared because the adoring shot can present it self at any time and you must be ready weather out shoot photos for a project or just sitting around not doing much of anything because you never know when that great photo will pop into view.
