Behind The Lens
Location
At home. I set up a reflective surface, on a table. Hung a piece of paper behind it, with a flashlight behind the paper.Time
It was morning. Had all of the curtains closed, so that minimal light could get into the room.Lighting
I didn’t have much choice in the way of lighting it, but did have to try several different flashlights, until I found one that really did a good job of lighting it evenly.Equipment
I used a canon t3i, 75-300 lens, a tripod,and a flashlight. A thin piece of paper was used as the backdrop, and the glass of water was sitting on a black reflective surface.Inspiration
I was inspired by some similar pictures, and I wanted to see if I could duplicate them.Editing
Not much in post-process, only adjustments to the brightness in Lightroom.In my camera bag
Since this picture I have upgraded some of my equipment. I now have a Canon 6d mark 2, 75-300 lens, as well as a 24-105 lens, and a godox 860 flash.Feedback
Don’t be afraid to try different styles of photography. Experiment with different ideas, and create your own take on old ideas.
