Behind The Lens

Location

My photo was taken at a captive light studio shoot workshop, this was my very first experience of studio photography

Time

All morning studio shoot

Lighting

Remote flash sensors was used to activate studio lighting.

Equipment

Canon 70d, Sigma 50-500 hand held

Inspiration

I was inspired to try something out of the box for me, as I have only been doing photography for a couple of years now, I still feel that I have a lot to learne,

Editing

Photo is cropped and back light adjusted slightly, this was done on my iPad Air

In my camera bag

Lens cloth, moisture sacks, spare camera, wide angle lens and my 50-500mm lens,

Feedback

Take part in photography workshops, I have now attended two, captive light workshop and the Skomer island photography workshop day experience with National trust photographer Andy Davis, I was fortunate enough to be asked to submit 12/14 of my images from my days shooting and I am delighted to say they have been put up on the website for this workshop, for the first couple of hours Andy Davis taught me more about my camera than I had ever expected to, since that day I have found that knowing how to use certain functions on my camera I tend to do less and less processing. Learn to steer your camera like you would any Finely tuned gear and strive to get that perfect photo!
