Behind The Lens

Location

I took this image at Forge Valley in North Yorkshire

Time

It was taken during the afternoon on a rather dull and rainy day

Lighting

The lighting was a little challenging, due to the dancers movement and low lighting conditions

Equipment

I used a Nikon, D5300 and an 18 to 300 mm lens

Inspiration

I was invited to attend a music video shoot by a dear friend, "Carrie Martin" who was getting a video done for her fantastic new song, "Maria in the moon" The inspiration came from seeing a beautiful ballerina "Katie Hoyle" dancing barefoot in a clearing in the woods

Editing

Because of the bad weather and the trees, I had to use a rather high ISO and cleaned up the noise later in LightRoom

In my camera bag

I normally have a Nikon D5300, an 18 to 300mm lens, a 35mm 1.8 for portraits and a Rode Mic in case any video opportunities arise

Feedback

Keep practising and don't give up, You Tube is a good starting place to gather info on base settings, and to pick up tips on various genres of photography
