Behind The Lens
Location
This was taken in my gardenTime
Just as the sun had started to setLighting
I made sure I was stood in a place where there was light on me but not so much on the background because that wasn't importantEquipment
Nikon D750. 50mm Lens. Tripod. My phone as a remote to press the shutter.Inspiration
In short I don't tend to have photos of myself but thats because I don't like other people taking them so I decided to take one myself!Editing
Brightness/contrast I fiddled around with to get the perfect balance and I believe I also bumped the vibrance up a tad to make my hair pop out a bit more.In my camera bag
Usually I have my Nikon D750, Nikon 50mm, Sigma 70-200mm, Tamron 24-70 and a Metz flash gun. I shoot gigs and festivals normally so it's everything that covers my basic needs as a photographer.Feedback
Take your time and think about what you are trying to capture.
