Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo at a outside of a Old dry cleaners with the classic red and cyber blue popping through the window. Reading cleaners.Time
It all happened around 11pm on a Sunday, driving back from Venice I decided to take a long route and ran into a gem, passing by the neon signs drove me closer to it like a fly.Lighting
Lighting was all natural from the neon signs bouncing light back, always chase the light!Equipment
I used a Sony a7iii, 24-70 nikkor along with a reflection off my phone to get the second reflection.Inspiration
When I drove by and saw the reflection of my car passing by, I couldn’t help but stop and tell my Friend to put on some shades at night and blow smoke into the air.Editing
I only enhanced the contrast saturation and sharpness for a good quality.In my camera bag
I usually only carry a old Sony 50mm lens from my a6300 and a Nikon lens with a EF Sony adapter.Feedback
I always try and see things from not only my perspective but a perspective off of another or adding in a phone to bounce reflections that can fill a picture. I say really. Try anything no matter what people see you doing you’ll never know until you try. I try to put my phone at a angle right in front of my camera and reflect a pattern or line structure.
