Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my home in Enkhuizen.

Time

It was about 4 PM.

Lighting

Natural light came through the two glass doors facing our garden and I added an extra artificial light to add some nice accents.

Equipment

I only have a Lumix DMC TZ100, all my photo's are taken with this little miracle of a camera... It shows that you don't need an expensive camera with a lot of equipment to take photo's of good quality. The best thing of this camera is that it is very easy to take with you, because it practically fits in your backpocket. I am saving money to buy something professional though, because it will open new possibilities for sure and I am always looking for new challenges.

Inspiration

Everybody has his or her story in life that changed the way we look at our existence. I tried to find a way to express my story with an old book and a dice, representing the chances we have within the outlines of our lifes.

Editing

I did very little post-processing in Lightroom like cropping and small but important adjustments.

In my camera bag

I don't have any equipment in my bag (yet) I am a beginning photographer and I am learning to use a camera, to look for the good light, composition and point of view. One day when I know how to use and set the camera well enough, I will start to think about a bag filled with technical things instead of the need to understand how it works first...

Feedback

When you look at a subject to photograph, you have to try to realise what you want to achieve, Try to find the good light, the right point of view and the best composition... In this case I wanted to capture the light on the dice in between the words on the many pages of this old book. I choose the underground carefully to match the color and lines of the pages. Once I open my laptop, the magic of today's world begins... I allways crop it later into the size and composition I like best. Crop and edit the photo in different ways, so you can choose the best one the next day when you can have a fresh look at them!
