Behind The Lens
Location
About 20 years ago in Oakland, California.Time
I think it was in the afternoon.Lighting
I used some. I think one for her hair. Was experimenting with it. Really don't like using lighting.Equipment
Nikon body and lens. No tripod.Inspiration
T was a beautiful and powerful woman who also had a great voice.Editing
This is actually a scan of the 11x14 print I made in my makeshift b&W darkroom. Zone VI Cold Light Head on Zone VI Brilliant Paper. I was not an expert when it came to developing photographs. Far from it. Took a fair amount of work to get this done. What I'm most proud of was that I was able to differentiate the various blacks in photo... her face, eyes, skin, hair, bra, and backdrop. And, the brilliance of her eyes and jewelry.In my camera bag
I currently have D300 with about ten lenses (all of them Nikon and most of the prime). Lens I carry with me the most are my 14 mm 2.8 and 85M 1.8.Feedback
Have fun and experiment. Enjoy the moment of photographing without paying too much mind about what might result.
