Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken on a gravel road in the Alaskan bush. I am a self-taught photographer and this was one of my first attempts at portraits.

Time

I took this shot in the golden light of late afternoon on a crisp October day.

Lighting

The light just seemed perfect and I started shooting. The sun was at a perfect angle and behind me.

Equipment

This was shot on a Nikon B500. No other equipment was involved.

Inspiration

I was patiently waiting for one of the foxes I knew to be in the area when this old cowboy walked out of the bush. I've often wondered what he was thinking about when I took this shot.

Editing

I did not do any post processing.

In my camera bag

Just my camera and tripod.

Feedback

Don't hesitate to take lots of shots of your subject. You never know what the camera will see that you don't.
