Location

This is a picture I took in the city of Bergamo, during a fight between the Senegalese boxer Mouhamed Ali Ndiaye and the Hungarian Norbert Zsekeres, which ended in a victory for Mouhamed Ali Ndiaye. When he was still a child, this athlete is said to have been held by the great champion himself during his naming ceremony – a tradition comparable to the Christian rite of baptism – and that’s why his father decided to name the boy Mouhamed Ali, just like him.

Time

The photo was taken during the evening of the Match.

Lighting

I didn't use any flash or additional lights, they are forbidden during the match.

Equipment

For this shot I used my Canon 5D mark II + Canon 24-105 f.4. I think zoom lens like 24-105 is perfect for boxe matches because in few seconds you can take photos with wide angle but also when subjects are far away from me.

Inspiration

I love the boxe but especially I love the conflicting emotions that can create: power, fragility, determination, collapse, soul, body, success, failure.

Editing

I clicked this photo in color (for the press) but after some days I decided to convert it in black and white and I think is the better mood for boxing images.

In my camera bag

The first thing I always pack is my Canon 5D Mark II with Canon 50mm f. 1.4, Canon 24-105 f.4 and Canon 70-200 f.28. For wildlife photography I use also Canon 300mm f.2.8.
