Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken while working on some photos. This cat loves to benin confined spaces but at the same time is always interested on what I'm doing, so he found a perfect spot under a coffee table where he can look at my every movement :)

Time

This shot was taken at around 7pm, when I stood up from my workstation and was heading to the kitchen to make me some supper.

Lighting

The only lighting source was a desk lamp that was pointing at that direction.

Equipment

No tripod or flash used. Just a prime 75mm lens. Camera was handheld.

Inspiration

Wanted to capture that intense curious look of the cat, since that is one of the few constants at my work environment.

Editing

Not much post processing apart from playing a bit with light levels and some clarification on the eyes.

In my camera bag

I always carry my Panasonic GH4 camera and a Sony Alpha 6000 with a couple of prime lenses and a zoom option.

Feedback

Instead of planning a perfect shot, be always ready for a perfect moment :)
