Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Nassau, Bahamas, South Beach.

Time

The photo was captured during sunset at low tide.

Lighting

The lighting was all natural light, during a sunset. The shot was capture after the sun had set thus given me the advantage of capturing a silhouette of my subjects.

Equipment

I used a tripod, Nikon D7000 with Nikon 18-105mm lens.

Inspiration

My inspiration came from viewing many black and white film photos many of which had a beautiful way of capturing people in action, dance, moods and various of emotions with a vintage, dreamy scene.

Editing

My post processing was done mainly too balance the tones of black and white. Using levels and curves has been a big advantage in helping me achieve the desire image I was looking for. Also using filter in photoshop, I was able to add grain to the texture of my photo to help create a film effect of that you would see in many old black and white photos.

In my camera bag

Nikon D7000, Sigma 8-16mm, Nikkon 80-200mm, Rokinon 85mm, Nikon 50mm, and a 8ft tripod.

Feedback

If you are inspired by the photo and want to capture the same results my advice would be to use a tripod to the best of your advantage in achieving less movements so that your subject appears sharp and the moving scene around it smooth. A small aperture would do just fine, 7.1 preferably; that all depends which one is sharper on your lens. And lastly timing is key, be prepared and be there before time to capture every moment of it; the best shop is found taking a quite a lot of shots so be patient and keep on shooting until you get what to are looking for.
