Behind The Lens

Location

At A fast food restaurant doing a mum chore.

Time

I think it was before mid day

Lighting

Inside with floor to ceiling windows. Natural light ???? is a fave

Equipment

Camera details are Nikon. It may be on the image details near the tags.

Inspiration

I love dogs I really really love them heaps. I love the fact that they are brilliant and connect with humans.

Editing

Probably did some cropping. I usually try to keep the more is less rule to altering pics.

In my camera bag

Usual equipment

Feedback

Ok I had to be brave and ask someone if it was ok to take this shot. Really they can say yes or no, it’s that simple, I think it’s more approaching a person you have never met before . This dog is a service dog in training, it has probably graduated to fully working helping dog before I ever got around to writing this down. My children were so embarrassed that I was going to converse with a complete stranger to ask permission. The kids are quite used to me embarrassing them the tell me this frequently ????????????????they dislike me crouching on the ground or getting into a weird positions to try and get the perfect viewpoint/angle. Family members who have to put up with a photographer will know their pain. Respect, permission,consent will help you catch the shots you want. Happy shooting : )
