Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the courtyard of a large bank in my hometown. The inner courtyard is freely accessible and offers great lighting conditions. That was in the context of a workshop and I wanted to show the participants how to use of these conditions in a effective way. I

Time

t was the evening of a late summer's day, around 7 p.m.

Lighting

The environment with the many glass surfaces reflects the incident light and produces a very diffuse and scattering light. Only in order to get a little more shine into the image, we used a silver reflector to bounce from below.

Equipment

This was taken with a Nikon D800 and the AF-S 85mm 1:1.8G. Lovely combination.

Inspiration

I knew the conditions there and wanted to take a portrait. That's it.

Editing

Basic RAW processing and color work were done with Capture One. Some basic retouching and D&B are done with Photoshop.

In my camera bag

Two Camera Bodies (Nikon D800 and D810), a couple of lenses (from 35 to 135mm), a rocket blower, tissues (do not forget), memory cards, and the much other things, you need.

Feedback

Look out for usable surfaces on buildings (like glas or metal), Ideally, the environment should not falsify the colors (Red buildings reflect strange light in red, etc.). A silver reflector helps a lot, to enhance the catch lights and to give a little more shine to your subject (model).
