Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at a small town of Dayboro at its annual Rodeo. It was in 2015.

Time

This was taken in the early afternoon.

Lighting

It was a warm bright day in May.

Equipment

This shot was a hand held with my Canon 60D. I think this was with my cheap 35-80mm lens.

Inspiration

I really wanted to capture the effort and emotion involved by each of the characters in the shot (including our little mate the calf)

Editing

The origin colour image was resaved as a black and white

In my camera bag

I have very basic equipment. I would love to one day be able to afford a decent telephoto lens.

Feedback

Rodeos are are great opportunity to capture action shots. Placing yourself so you are not higher than the subject helps the composition in my opinion.
