Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at Neshaminy State Park Civil war reenactment. It was a two day event I can't remember what battle unfortunately.

Time

This is one I am most proud of as it was taken on film. I was not doing digital then. I was hopping to get something like this looking through the I piece but you don't know until the film comes back. I never thought I got this total surprise.

Lighting

I was really trying to get the cannon fire. At this time I did not have a shutter trigger.

Equipment

I was using at this time a Cannon AE-1 with a Vivitar 60-180 mm lense on a archer tripod.

Inspiration

Wanted to record some of the history, weapons,clothing,way of life. How hard they had it.

Editing

no

In my camera bag

I am strictly a CANNON man In one bag I have a AE-1,AE-1 PROGRAM, A F-1 . assorted lenses CANNON VIVITAR. Bogon flash.

Feedback

With film it is harder, be patient take your time you and try to anticipate the shot it is all bout timing I think I used continuous shooting. Keeping in mind that when you leave what you got is what you get. With digital and this is why I switched you have a small advantage to see the taken shot instantly so you might have time to get what you want ether way just keep trying. don't be afraid to try something and keep praticing. GOOD LUCK
