Behind The Lens

Location

Wollongong Inner Harbour NSW Australia

Time

Midday in full autumn sun.

Lighting

Harsh mid day natural lighting.

Equipment

Nikon 3100d Lens 18-55mm at approx 30. Cropped slightly in post.

Inspiration

On a sunny autumn day down by the inner harbour and lighthouse in Wollongong I saw a man who had parked his Kombi by the break wall. The weathered gentleman was chilling with his dog playing ukulele on one of the final summer like days before winter. I approached and asked to take the shot to which he agreed but his dog was so friendly it took a while to get the right one.

Editing

Post produced Black and White in Photoshop using Silver Effects and some dodge and burn.

In my camera bag

My trusty Nikon 3100d because i can't afford something flashier. Lens: 50mm prime, 18-55 & 55-200mm

Feedback

Don't be afraid to ask. I always have been until now.
