Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in my bedroom on a Saturday night home alone taking selfies part boredom part isolation part heartbreak

Time

This was late at night

Lighting

Not really I’m an amateur so anything good is sheer luck

Equipment

iPhone 8 Plus and a Bluetooth selfie stick

Inspiration

Having left a violent relationship and then finding out within a few months that he had flown overseas and got married to a woman in Ethiopia. I was crushed not because I wanted him more that he had compared me to other woman and told me that I was ugly, he crushed my self esteem so I took a series of shots this one included and created a video to music, I wanted to remind myself actually I am beautiful and at 49 years old I am damn hot and he’s the one missing out lol it was really healing for me especially having developed PTSD from his abuse and the pain of seeing him just move on while my life had been turned upside down

Editing

Just used rookie cam and used the purple filter

In my camera bag

I don’t have a bag really just discovering my creativity

Feedback

Just play around with different angles and body positions
