Behind The Lens

Location

Downtown "Philly". Philadelphia, PA

Time

Early evening, headed out for dinner with a great group of friends.

Lighting

Great area of downtown with bars, restaurants n the neon signs, not to mention the street lights n traffic signal lights. Just like the feel of the block.

Equipment

Canon 5D MKIII, 24-70mm f/2.8 lens IS.

Inspiration

I was actually staying overnight for a shoot the following morning, and like mentioned earlier, I was headed for dinner. While waiting for the traffic signal to change, this young lady walked into the frame, and helped adding to the image. Actually was kinda of hoping an individual would appear:-)

Editing

Just a little contrast/ blacks and very, very little saturation for the red in neon sign

In my camera bag

That evening, it was just the Canon 5D MKIII and the Canon 24-70mm. Equipment really depends on the location. Different equipment for different situations.

Feedback

I really love street photography, city lights, "Philly" is a great place to make some images. Also, night images, I feel, helps in so many ways, in color and black and white to portray a feel of inner cities. PA has so many great cities and locations for photography. Another favorite is Pittsburgh, PA. Beautiful lights, bridges, old Steel mills, etc.
