Location
Wandering around the streets of New Orleans.Time
Around midday.Lighting
Natural light was perfect for this subject while the overcast acted as a natural diffuser.Equipment
Shot with the Canon 5D Mark iii attached with the 70-200 2.8.Inspiration
The simple fact that it just spoke to me. I felt as if this shot represented the true character of New Orleans in a very historic/veteran way.Editing
Post-processing in Lightroom. increased the blacks and added some contrast while also bringing down the saturation just a hair.In my camera bag

For me it's about waiting for the moment to find you, and when it does just keep shooting until the image you've captured suits the subjects personality based on your feeling alone. As a photographer we don't always have control of our environment, so adapting and trusting our eye while learning how to feel the things we see slowly becomes second nature.
