Location
I took this photo in Isabela, Negros Occidental, the Philippines. It is a rural area devoid of modern structures. This shot was taken inside a rustic coffeeshop with good lightingTime
It was around 3 pmLighting
The coffee shop was well light from the the light coming from outside. The Sun was at its peak but the structure mellowed out its harshness.Equipment
Sony Nex 6 with the 18-50 3.5 lensInspiration
I saw this old woman enter the coffeshop and her features fascinated me. The lighting was also playing up her wrinkled face. She had such a warm smile on her face it was easy for me to approach her and ask her if I could take her picture. She said yes.Editing
I applied Easy HDR to the original picture and tweaked saturation and highlights and shadows in Photoshop 6In my camera bag

Always bring a camera. Some unique people like this model suddenly crops up rarely. Get the model at ease with a smile or a joke. The moment they feel relaxed with you, their personalities shine through
