Behind The Lens
Location
In my hobby Photo studio.Time
It was in the evening, I needed the room dark for this project.Lighting
I set up 2 speed lite flash from the back and site of the apple to catch the splash.Equipment
I used a canon 5D Mark II with a 50mm lens on a manfrotto tripot and a cable release.Inspiration
The idea in my head was to shoot an apple cracking up on a wet surface. I wanted to create drama and action....and the unusual idea of an apple cracking up on impact which they normally would not do !Editing
As I photographed the apple and its pieces separately, I used photoshop to place the apple pieces in place as if they are flying off on impact.In my camera bag
Besides my canon camera I always have the 24-105 zoom lens and my favorite 100mm macro lens with me. But it depends what I want to shoot, for landscapes I bring my tripod and so on.Feedback
The first thing would be patience and the second an idea interesting enough for you to finish the project to the end. I also get inspired by looking at others work which inspires me and then try and do something similar.
