Environmental Photography – “Electric Motor Repairman”
The purpose in constructing this photo was to take an “environmental” photograph. One which showed someone in their environment. In this case it would be one’s work environment. For this shot I framed the repairman by his own motor that he was repairing. 1) Sony Nex 7, mirrorless, 24 mp camera. 2) Tripod mounted, timed shutter release. 3) On camera flash. 4) Fill light placed overhead and to the rear. 5) 1/60th, F11, ISO 800, Carl Zeiss 50mm, f 1.8.

Abandoned Steel Bridge – New Milford, CT
[wzslider autoplay=”true” interval=”6000″ height=”800″ lightbox=”true”]I didn’t have very good access to this bridge and only had my smartphone camera phone with me. Due to road hazards I wasn’t even able to park the car and walk across to bridge to get a better side view.
