Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in a country road not far from my house in rural central Ohio.

Time

It was taken in the evening right before a summer storm popped up.

Lighting

All natural evening light.

Equipment

This was actually taken with just my cell phone!

Inspiration

I've become obsessed with abandoned buildings, houses and barns lately. This abandoned bus with its bright yellow and rust colors next to the faded grey of the shack were perfect compliments. One evening as a storm was approaching I thought it would be perfect to finally photograph this scene. The dramatic clouds were the perfect finishing touch!

Editing

Since this wad taken on my phone, i did all of my editing on my phone as well. I typically use PicsArt app or just Instagram editing.

In my camera bag

Whatever fits in my pocket. Since I'm too poor to afford a DSLR right now, i just shoot with what i have. My phone. Right now it's an LG G5. It does have many fully manual controls like ISO, aperture and focus so at least it's not just a point and shoot. Haha!!

Feedback

Since i only use my phone currently, i am always ready to snap some pics! Keep your eyes open to interesting things all around you. And don't be afraid to get down (or up) to find an interesting angle that is different that what everyone else is doing. Pull your car over and jump out a lot. There are so many great things that people pass by without noticing everyday!!!
