It’s about 10 o’clock in the morning. And were using window light in an old deserted power plant.Lighting
The windows are extremely large and the facility is Caverness so we were able to move back into the facilities to creating a very intense one sided light.Equipment
I am using my Nikon D850 on a tripod With a Tamron 24-79 F2Inspiration
The photo of the cowboy is part of a series on the west that I’ve been working on for the last year. It is both portrait and landscapes that I will then put in a book. If features both black-and-white and color. I grew up in the west with Cowboys and western landscapeEditing
The digital image was processed in Lightroom and Photoshop.In my camera bag
I use Nikon. Depending how I’m traveling I have my Nikon D850 and Z7. On the Nikon D8 50 I always have the Tamron 24 to 70 F28 and Zeiss ZEISS Distagon 3.5 for Z7 z 35 Nnn 1.8 and z 24-70/4 - Extra batteries extra cards and filters if needed.Feedback
Always the right model, lighting, natural lighting and the right camera and lens. Extra shots so you have plenty of material to work with and post processing
