Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at a church festival/fair in the town of Tabernacle, NJ.

Time

It was sunset at approximately 7:45-8pm and I had to literally run across the parking lot as the sunwas setting.

Lighting

The sunset was behind the riders and I didn't have much time to think about the shot when the opportunity presented itself.

Equipment

I thought I shot this with my 5D mklll, but found it was done with a G3X I had at the time.

Inspiration

The way the sunset was occurring behind the ride looked like it would make an interesting photo.

Editing

I tweeked the exposure a stop or 2, mostly left it alone

In my camera bag

That depends, I switched back to Nikon from Canon about 2 and a half years ago. I had 6 Nikon F mount lenses and 2 Nikon film cameras. Now I have 4 Nikon film cameras, 2 D750s, a P950, a Sony HX-400V, numerous lenses, 2 Rolleiflex, and a Mamiya 645 1000s. The contents of my camera bags depends on what cameras I'm using. My primary bag has a D750, an F100 4 lenses 2 Godox Triggers, batteries, lens cleaners, a notebook, pens and lens hoods.
