Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken during the COVID pandemic lockdown. Trying to be creative and pass some time, I took this photo of my daughter.Time
This was around mid-afternoon.Lighting
Making an effort to have hi-key lighting, this was taken right in front of the window at the brightest time of day.Equipment
This was taken with my D5600, handheld.Inspiration
This is representative of the broken feeling my daughter expressed during the pandemic. Missing time with friends and activities. The coloured eye represents the hope for a return to normal.Editing
The photo was taken in full colours. I desaturated the photo and returned colours to the eye area. Softened the texture in Lightroom.In my camera bag
I’ve upgraded to a Nikon D850. I always have my 50mm 1.8 and a telephoto lens.Feedback
Shoot outside the box. You’re shooting to pease yourself, not others. Shoot what you see and what you want to capture in that moment.
