Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Manchester City center down a side street where a shop had some amazing down lighting that just lit up a single spot

Time

Night time approx about 9pm

Lighting

The lighting was perfect, 3 single spot lights down lighting the pitch black

Equipment

50mm prime lens, Nikon d3200, tripod, no flash and 1 - 2!second exposure

Inspiration

I love photos that male you look again, that look Erie and have interesting light, we were taking long exposure pictures around Manchester and came across a dimly lit area that just looked perfect. It was a little bit of luck that I managed to capture this

Editing

I love deep blacks in my photos, so I always drop the blacks and increase the highlights. That’s pretty much all I did

In my camera bag

A few prime lenses, a good telephoto lens and a nice wide angle. 2 camera bodies and a tripod. A couple of flashes and gels also

Feedback

Just experiment and have fun
