Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at home minutes before leaving for his brother's basketball game. I was simply using this shot as a confirmation that my camera was ready for the game. To my surprise this test image turned out to be an absolutely fantastic shot of my youngest child!

Time

Mid-afternoon.

Lighting

Directly behind the subject natural light was coming in from glass french doors.

Equipment

I shot this with my Nikon DSLR 3200 camera. No flash was used.

Inspiration

Preparing to take photos at his big brother's basketball game.

Editing

No.

In my camera bag

Cheat sheets, 18-55mm lens, 200 mm lens, and a macro lens.

Feedback

Take lots of photos and never be afraid to play with the settings.
