Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Oxford Street in London

Time

It was late afternoon.

Lighting

There was good cloud cover as it was a rainy/snowy day; therefore the lighting was naturally diffuse allowing good, balanced exposures.

Equipment

Pentax K3 with Pentax DA 18-55 mm WR

Inspiration

I wanted to show the rain/snow squall that had suddenly turned up in London during early summer (owing to chilling winds from Siberia)

Editing

Post-processed the photo in Photoshop with some adjustments to shadows and highlights; along with some colour punch.

In my camera bag

Pentax K3 Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 Pentax DA* 55mm f/1.4 Pentax smc DA 18-55mm Neewer LED Flash Extra batteries Mini-tripod ND Filter Polarizing Filter

Feedback

Use 35mm for good ratio of foreground and background elements. Use lower vantage point to make the photo interesting.
