I love the timelessness of this black and white. it could take the viewer back in time to the wild west days or anytime up to present. Great image for the imagination.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on a hillside near Spearfish, SD.

Time

This photo was taken in the early morning right at sunrise.

Lighting

With a backlit subject, I definitely exposed for the highlights, then converted to black and white in Photoshop.

Equipment

This was shot with one of my first DSLR cameras, a Canon 50D, and I used a 55-250mm kit lens. I took alot of great photos and learned so much with that set-up before upgrading equipment!

Inspiration

I took this photo as part of a workshop in the Black Hills. I met so many great people and learned so much!

Editing

I really just cropped and converted to black and white in Photoshop.

In my camera bag

I now shoot with the Canon 90D. The 3 lenses that are always in my bag are the Canon 70-300L, the Canon 100mm Macro, and the Canon 15-85mm. I love those 3 lenses!

Feedback

When shooting silhouettes, expose for the highlights. Pay careful attention to little details like space between legs, body positions and where the grasses fall on the legs.
