Behind The Lens
Location
Photo was taken on the fishing pier near Popps Ferry Causeway in Biloxi, Mississippi.Time
The photo was made during golden hour 15 minutes before sunset. I decided to backlight the Madisyn and Faith to catch the warm light in their hair and highlight the hands.Lighting
The light nature provided during a wonderful sunset, this produced an ethereal separation of my beautiful granddaughters from the soft blues in the background.Equipment
The image was made using a Sony Alpha 7ii and Zeiss 55mm Sonnar at f2.8.Inspiration
It was a wonderful fall day and my grandkids felt like an outdoor activity was in order so we went for a walk to watch the sunset. We live near the Popps Ferry Causeway and knew the scenery would beautiful. I naturally brought my gear and let Faith and Madisyn be the focus of my attention.Editing
Very little was done other than some cropping and minor exposure adjustments.In my camera bag
I have Sony equipment and love the mirror less 7 series bodies. I have a7ii and a7riii in the backpack with three lenses usually the Sigma 24-70 Art is ever present, coupled with Sony 90mm G macro along with the Zeiss 55 Sonnar. I do also use 200-600mm Sony G lens for wildlife and sports. When I’m traveling light I will simplify my kit with just one body and 35mm Zeiss 2.8 Sonnar for a more discreet approach.Feedback
Be ready and open to opportunity. I keep a camera within reach everywhere I go. Try to make photos every day and always keep learning. Above all enjoy the craft and look to other photographers for inspiration.
