Behind The Lens

Location

My home in Northeast Pennsylvania has become my studio. Depending upon the quality of light and time of day, my dining room and kitchen give me nice window light.

Time

In the afternoon in October, the sun begins to descend. I like that mid-day quality of light in my northern facing window.

Lighting

I used a folded white bounce board on the left to reflect back into the slate. Straight out of the camera, I liked the cool feel, without seeming too blue.

Equipment

Olympus OM D EM5 Mark II with 12-40 2.8 Pro Lens, on Benro Tripod with Pistol Grip 200 ISO, f3.5 at 1/30 sec.

Inspiration

My desire to bake returns when the air outside becomes crisp. The aroma of banana bread in the oven makes me nostalgic for my childhood, learning from my Greek Yiayia how to bake and cook.

Editing

No editing, other than crop.

In my camera bag

My little OLY is the first rig that I pack in my crossbody purse. Olympus OMD EM5 Mark II with the pro 12-40 lens or the nifty 25mm Prime make it perfect for traveling light. The weather sealed body has held up under the duress of the Cyclades in Greece, being wind-whipped with sand and sea mist. My Big Zed Six is my Clydesdale Workhorse. Nikon Z6 Mirrorless with the 24-70 f4 Z lens is a versatile rig built for performance. The quiet feature during live performances is an appreciated upgrade from the D750. Its difficult to choose one favorite: I love them BOTH

Feedback

Chase the light. Move around your space. Vary the angles, and share what you've baked. :)
