Behind The Lens

Location

The original background photograph was take 2/5/2012 in a graveyard in Newburyport, Massachusetts.

Time

I shot this at 3:30 in the afternoon under full sun.

Lighting

The original lighting was harsh mid day sun.

Equipment

I used a Nikon D80 camera with a 28-105mm f3.5 macro lens. 1/250 f/7.1 ISO 100 28mm

Inspiration

It was a beautiful old graveyard (as graveyards go) and I had been wanting to spend some time shooting there for a while. I liked the large tree on the hill.

Editing

There are 3 images combined to create this image, the original capture of the graveyard a texture image which created the moon shape and then the bird was added from a separate shot as well. The lighting was changed from daylight to night time and all the color was added in post processing.

In my camera bag

Nikon and Manfrotto

Feedback

I consider myself an artist as opposed to a photographer. I use photography as one of the mediums to create my art, so I am constantly going over older images and using them in new creations.
