Location
This photo was taken on an obscure back-country road in Missouri at an abandoned farmhouse. As I was driving around a couple of years ago, I was drawn to this house, especially the view of this hanging screen.Time
I stumbled across this gem around mid-afternoon.Lighting
Autumn is a fantastic time of year to showcase the worn and forgotten.Equipment
This was shot with my first DSLR, a Canon EOS REBEL T1i Aperture: f/5 ISO: 400 Exposure: 1/800.Inspiration
I love showcasing decaying and run-down houses that may have been glorious love-filled homes, but have now turned in to horror movie backdrops. This hanging window caused an uneasy feeling and needed to be shot.Editing
I worked with Lightroom to crop, switch to B&W, adjust contrast and sharpness.In my camera bag
Canon T3i, Sigma Art 30mm and Sigma 18-250mmFeedback
Take time to explore and to not only shoot what is beautiful to you, but what may inspire others, spur a deep feeling or tell a story. Even some of the smallest, "ordinary" or broken objects can be made interesting and spectacular! For inspiration, keep this quote from Diane Arbus in mind, "I really believe there are things which nobody would see unless I photographed them."
