Behind The Lens
Location
In my home in Leeuwarden at the time, its one of my first portraits.Time
At night probably, due to my studies I'd say this was at midnight.Lighting
I wanted a emotional picture, which led me to light the face on just one side which emphasizes one area of the face. The shadows leap thru to the bottom which makes for a nice compositionEquipment
Canon 1000D I believe, one of my first cameras.Inspiration
I wanted a emotional picture where the black and white grainy overall look would work in my favor. Its a very expressive pose which I still love.Editing
Yes I did some editing using Photoshop. I made it more grainy and in parts out of focus to let the subject get more attention.In my camera bag
I like to keep things as minimal as possible, that does not mean using the right equipment for the right moment. I have lenses for portraits, landscapes. Tripods, filters, accessories its all part of the creative process. So it highly depends on what I'm after. The idea, composition, materials, etcFeedback
Just have fun and try to figure out how shots are being made and make your own twist.
