Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken at a small beach called Pine Island in Spring Hill, Florida.Time
This picture was taken around 8pm in the evening. One of the wonderful things about the west side of Florida is you can get the beautiful sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico.Lighting
I really wanted a silhouette of my subjects while keeping the background sunset colors.Equipment
This picture was taken with a Canon Rebel Xti and 18-55 mm lensInspiration
Wanted to capture a memorable moment of my daughter and her grandmother together.Editing
I used lightroom for post processing in order to keep the coloring in the sky and darken my subjects to make them silhouettes against the background.In my camera bag
My Canon camera, 18-55mm lens, 75-300 zoom lens, 50mm portrait lens, and external flash.Feedback
Challenge yourself to be creative. Get to your destination with enough time to get the settings just right. This picture would have been much easier to take and process if I would have had my tripod with me.
