Location
I had the idea and drew this picture on a piece of paper after a class on Color Theory. After finally finding a blue pot and watering can, I set the scene in our backyard. I shot my husband spilling his drink first. Then I shot Gizmo looking in the direction of the drink spilling. Then I had my husband take my picture...I then ran upstairs (to shoot the flower in the same light). I held the watering can and used a remote to shot lots of water... I needed a drop to just about hit my husband.... turned out to be the 2nd shot. Then 4 hours in photoshop...Time
SunsetLighting
All natural lighting. All pictures shot within a few minutes of each other.Equipment
Nikon D800, Tripod, wireless remoteInspiration
Color Theory Triad Blue, Yellow, Red...and an old photoshop cover image of a flower instead of a beach umbrella. I always knew that was the direction I wanted to take...Editing
About 4 hours in Photoshop after about 4 years of PS you tube tutorials.In my camera bag
In my bag I carry my camera with my Nikkor 24-300 take everywhere lens. I usually carry a tilt shift lens, and always forget to try it. I have a lens cloth, extra camera battery, external flash with extra batteries, a gray card, and an extra SD card.Feedback
When I’m going to do a “fun art” photography project, I always draw it out on paper first...badly sketch, is more like it. I think of lighting, color, and POV...then I find the items I need to photograph. My Main photo was the flower pot being watered. I then layered and transformed the other photos in PS using selections and masking.
