Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in some old house. I am self taught amateur photographer so every photo is new experience for me.

Time

It was beautiful afternoon. I usually shoot in the morning or in the afternoon, because it is it's my favorite part of the day. It was taken at 20th of June, 2013.

Lighting

I prefer daylight, so I never use flash for my portraits. :)

Equipment

I used canon eos 550d, Canon EF-S 18-55 mm F3.5-5.6 IS and nothing else.

Inspiration

I find my inspiration in people's faces, so that is why I decided to make another photo where you can feel the soul through the eyes.

Editing

Ofcourse! I converted it to black & white, put some darkness and some light in her eyes, etc. Truly, I can't even remeber all that things, I just experimented, haha.

In my camera bag

I have 3 lenses and I always bring them with me. Standard Canon EF-S 18-55 mm F3.5-5.6 IS, Then 50 mm f 1.8, and Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS . And the body I use is Canon eos 550d.

Feedback

Always capture things in which you find inspiration, because the best picture is one in which you see what others do not see. So, if your inspiration is like this, take your camera, and involve imagination. :)
