Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Varanasi (India). I love this child..the eyes..

Time

If I remember correctly had to be rush hour. A timetable unsuitable for photographing, but he was there, and it was beautiful and I could not help it..

Lighting

The light was not soft because it was a time where the sun was very high. As I've written before at times the illumination does not matter and I managed to lighten a little the shadows in post-prodution.

Equipment

This was shot with Nikon D610 and Nikon 85mm.

Inspiration

The intense gaze of the child in his mother's arms. I was a little close to me but his eyes lit up so much to be fascinated

Editing

I proceeded with lightroom to lighten shadows and I increased the contrast

In my camera bag

The lens that should never miss is my lens Tamron 70-200 and Sigma 50mm 1.4. I work with a Nikon D750 or Olympus OMD E-M10 to move more "light".

Feedback

One must know how to observe people, start doing it already from far. Only so you can capture what they experience during a day
