Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo walking the beautiful streets in Motta, Sicily.

Time

This picture was taken mid-day but the lightening was perfect due to the door being in a shaded alley.

Lighting

Nothing I can think of.

Equipment

This was actually taken with a Rebel T3i. My first camera.

Inspiration

An old friend and I wanted to explore an old town in Sicily and just go around taking pictures. We noticed how many interesting doors were in the town, so we did a challenge where we took a picture of every interesting door we passed by. This one was my favorite. It looked like it had a story to tell, a history to share.

Editing

I didn't do a lot, I just changed it to black and white.

In my camera bag

You will find my Canon 7D and my favorite lens, the Sigma 35 mm. I also carry my 60 mm macro lens because I enjoy detail shots.

Feedback

Capture what inspires you, what speaks to your heart.
