Behind The Lens

Location

This photo is shot at Szobor Park in Budapest, Hungary. Szobor Park is an outdoor museum showing statues from the hungarin soviet-era. This car is a part of the museum.

Time

I think it is shot around 2 or 3 in the afternoon.

Lighting

It was cloudy and I hoped for the sun to break through the clouds to give better light for this photo. But it never happened so I had to take the shot anyway. Turned out great after som photoshopping :)

Equipment

Shot with a Nikon D7000, Sigma 17-70 f/2.8-4.5. Handheld.

Inspiration

The moment I saw the car I knew it would be great for this kind of HDRish picture.

Editing

A lot post-processing. Enhancing contrast, sharpening, curves etc to bring out this look.

In my camera bag

Not much... usually I only have the camera and the lens mounted on it, sometimes when I have a zoom-lens on I alo bring a prime-lens. Extra battery and some cleaning cloths... thats it,,

Feedback

Use a low angle an POV, it makes the car look bigger
