Behind The Lens
Location
During lockdown I explored in fine detail the area around my flat in West London, looking at changes in light through new leaves as in this image. Still learning to write with light.Time
It was late on a summer afternoon.Lighting
The summer sun was shining through the leaves across the canal. As well as a strong direct light there is reflection from water and some light coloured buildings.Equipment
I can’t remember the lens I used on my Canon 7D Mk2.Inspiration
Each time I go out during lock down I try to look at my environment differently, that day it was about greenery and light.Editing
As ever very limited - it is not something I enjoy.In my camera bag
Normally I choose a lens before I leave home and think how best to use what I have to capture what I see based on my self imposed task.Feedback
Take your time, get to know your neighbourhood, look at your settings and the images you capture then work out what needs to change to get the image you see in your head.
