Love the way your eye is taken up the cobbled street.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in Rovinj, little Adriatic town in Croatia. I think it was May, 2012 and I was there with my friend attending "Rovinj photo days" manifestation.

Time

As I remember, it was late morning.

Lighting

The sun was pretty strong, but shadows were soft from the light bouncing from the cobble stone.

Equipment

At that time I was using Canon 5D Classic and usually 24-70 lens, as in this case.

Inspiration

Generally, I like Mediterranean towns with those narrow back alleys with laundry hanging from the windows and a sense of tranquility it exudes.

Editing

Since I shoot RAW, I had to do some post processing, but nothing special - opened up shadows and closed down highlights and straighten vertical lines.

In my camera bag

Nowadays, I use Pentax K-70 camera. It has all the capabilities that I care for: in body stabilization, backward compatibility with old manual lenses, 2-5 shots bracketing, articulated screen and easy to use menu among a lot of other useful features. Recently, I use a lot Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD Macro, inexpensive but great value lens.

Feedback

Go out and take pictures :-)
