Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken during a shooting we've made in an abandoned building.

Time

It was in the morning, around 10 o'clock.

Lighting

We've used only the natural light here, without any reflector - especially due to the created shadows

Equipment

Camera Nikon D7100 with a prime lens 105mm, no other gear.

Inspiration

I enjoyed a lot the particular light here and the pattern of the shadows and I have "pictured" in my mind this shot ... so I took it.

Editing

Very little post-processing - then turned the photo into black and white.

In my camera bag

I usually carry with me the camera, 1-2 prime lenses (between 35mm, 50mm, 85mm or 105mm) and 1-2 zoom lenses (12-24mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm), one flash and spare cards and batteries.

Feedback

The only advice is to never be afraid of trying something different, to know the rules and to not hesitate to break them :)
