Behind The Lens
Location
We were traveling through India, and each morning as we were walking through the small towns we were visiting often saw the people getting ready for their day. I wasn't sure if they would be upset by me taking a photo, but the barber gave me the ok, so i started to take a few shots - I loved the colour of the blue doors against the green interior.Time
This was taken early morning.Lighting
The light was a struggle, as the interior was not lit - so i had to over expose the exterior and play around a little in post production to get it right.Equipment
Canon 5D mark II - 24-70mm lensInspiration
The coloursEditing
Post processing in getting the balance of light right between the indoor and outdoor lighting as there was no internal light on in the small hut.In my camera bag
as we were traveling, I was traveling light - just my 5D and the one lens - 24-70mm to help me capture the experienceFeedback
India is rich in vibrant colours - and the smaller villages have a more rental pace to life than a big city, so bathing in the rivers, washing and going to the barber was a normal start to the day
