Behind The Lens

Location

The Photo was taken at a Car Show in my home town of Hull, East Yorkshire in the UK

Time

The photo was taken in the early afternoon at about 2pm while walking around the Show

Lighting

The lighting was great on the day with the sun shining down

Equipment

Canon EOS 5D Mk2 with EF 50mm F1.8 Lens on a Tripod

Inspiration

This was my first time photographing Cars as I am a Wildlife Photographer, I heard about the Car Show and went along with one of my Camera’s. Walking around looking at the different Cars with some of them Supercars I spotted this Blue Cadillac and thought it had some interesting lines and would make an excellent subject, most of the Photographers around the show wer concentrating on the front of the Cars but I wanted a different shot and the rear light cluster looked very interesting

Editing

Basic adjustments to slightly darken the image around the rear light cluster in order to highlight it from the rest of the image and some localised sharpening of the rear light cluster

In my camera bag

As a Wildlife Photographer my normal equipment is far removed from the equipment I used to obtain this image, my normal set up is- Canon 1dx Mark 2 Canon EF 500mm F4 L IS USM MARK 2 LENS with 1.4 Mark 3 Teleconvertor Canon 7d Mark 2 Canon 100-400mm IS USM MARK 2 LENS WIMBERLEY MARK 2 GIMBAL CARBON HEAVY DUTY TRIPOD

Feedback

As this was my first time photographing Cars my experience with this style and type of Photography is limited, but look for Cars with interesting features that stand out
