Behind The Lens

Location

Photo was taken in downtown Athens, Greece.

Time

It is taken around 8AM

Lighting

No artificial light has been used. It was very clear sky, early morning.

Equipment

It was Sony Alpha 350 with Sigma lens.

Inspiration

I wanted to capture the contrast between the blue sky and grey background of the wall. Afterwards, while looking at the photo on the computer, I started rotating it and suddenly the phot got completely different dimension and feeling when it was upside down.

Editing

Usually, I am trying not to over process the photo. I'm using Adobe Lightroom.

In my camera bag

Now I'm using Sony SLT 68, Sigma Lens 8-17, Tamron 18-200, Zeiss 50mm and Hoya 28-80 (portrait lens).

Feedback

I'm trying to capture interesting light reflections and quite often I like to take the photo with strong backlight, to emphasise the silouete.
