Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at my friend's wedding in the Maasai Mara in Kenya.

Time

It was mid afternoon, but it was fairly grey and cloudy.

Lighting

I didn't use anything.

Equipment

I just used my camera.

Inspiration

I asked my friend what iconic photo she really wanted and she wanted a lone tree on the plains with the groom and bridal party. I went out earlier with the driver to find the tree and make sure it wasn't too far from where the ceremony was to take place. The Maasai man walking behind them was a complete fluke. He happened to walk there and I grabbed the opportunity of a photo.

Editing

Nothing

In my camera bag

I have my Nikon with an 18-55mm lens and 55-200mm lens. I also carry my Sony super zoom camera.

Feedback

This was a bit of a fluke shot with the Maasai walking behind.
