Behind The Lens

Location

I am a self taught photographer, and one day I was wanting to play around with shadows. I set a stool close to the glass door and tried different poses for self portraits. I feel this image captured what I was looking for just perfectly, with that right balance of light and shadow, with just a tad of editing.

Time

I captured this image either late morning/midday.

Lighting

The only lighting that was used was natural lighting.

Equipment

The only equipment used was my handy tripod and ready to go Canon T3i.

Inspiration

I like seeing how shadows play off of features and curves and wanted to create my own image to display that.

Editing

I used a little bit of editing to enhance the shadows, brighten colors, and some warmth.

In my camera bag

Equipment I use can vary, depending on what I am wanting to capture.

Feedback

Just keep practicing and having fun capturing different types of images!
