Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at farm where I keep my horse and the lady who owns asked me to take some photos. In this photo “hocus” was 30 yrs of age and still going strong and as you can see still had a lot Going for her . But unfortunately a few months later she had to be put to sleep , so I was very pleased I had taken some photos of her enjoying herself.

Time

It was late afternoon

Lighting

I was very lucky it was the right setting sunny. But clouds in the sky.

Equipment

Canon

Inspiration

Because “hocus” the pony loves to jump it gave me a chance to test myself . So took photos from all different angles and I was very lucky with this shot , to be honest I was wanting the shot in flight but never expected this amazing photo. I was laid on the floor and I can remember thinking to myself what am I doing. It just shows you after sometimes take a risk and think outside the box to create good photos. As I’m still learning it’s trial and error and as I said I wanted to try and do moving horse instead of portrait .

Editing

I used photoshop to enhance the sky.

In my camera bag

As I am still learning myself with trial and error and u tube . I carry 3 lenses and spare battery.

Feedback

Expect the unexpected if you take risks and think out of the box you sometimes create a amazing photo .
