Behind The Lens
Location
this photo was taken from my collage time during the festival called 'Janmashtami' in India for the lord 'Krishna'. In this festival, people make a human pyramid and break the holy clay pot, to make it more difficult they sprinkle water in everyone so they get a slip from each other and fall on the ground, they rise again and eventually, upper cloths will get tare off and everyone will get muddy. you need to stay away and keep taking photos from distance otherwise they will drag you inside as well.Time
it was morning time between 9:30 to 11:00.Lighting
it was just normal sunny daylight and this part was in shaded with trees.Equipment
my first digital camera konica minolta dimage z2Inspiration
this was a very inspirational photo to me, this event of making a human pyramid and break the holy clay pot, here I framed the cropped part where one can see the only two layers of people standing on each other and struggling to get things stable. it gives the message of "UNITY'', ''BROTHERHOOD'', stay together to succeed, support each other, and many other inspirational things people see it differently.Editing
I took it from a bit far, so they won't catch me but some visible pixels are there, I just make it monochrome and little contrast.In my camera bag
at that time,... only my konica minolta dimage z2. but now I have got lot more things than just a camera and a few lenses.Feedback
this photo was clicked by a very old camera in 2004 I think, just be true to the image and get the feel of the moment in the photograph. technically better equipment will be an advantage
