Location
I took this candid photo in a poor district of Konya, Turkey.Time
Just before lunch, before the midday sun got too bright.Lighting
Natural outdoor sunlight.Equipment
The shot was taken on a Nikon D7100 DSLR camera with a 18-105mm lens @ ISO 100.Inspiration
I just noticed these two scruffy-looking boys wandering around on a waste piece of land. I said hello and when they saw my camera they started to fool around so I took several candid photos in quick succession and liked this result the best.Editing
Just did the usual slight sharpening on the Raw file – nothing more.In my camera bag
I usually just carry my Nikon D7100 camera with two lenses: 18-105mm plus a 70-300mm with an external flash and a spare battery. When I'm travelling, I like to carry the minimum amount of kit.Feedback
My only advice would be to keep your eyes open to fleeting possibilities, have your camera set to an appropriate ISO and be careful with depth of field. It really helps to engage with the subject to make them feel relaxed and normal in front of the camera, particularly if, as in this case, they are total strangers.
