Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo at home, near Budapest. I was spending my time in my house, trying to expreiment with something new. I was curious about creating a self portrait in a whole new way.Time
The photo was taken in the evening.Lighting
Actually this set of light is one of my favourites. There's only one source of light, you have to set it in the appropiate angle. Making this lightsource softer has an important role as well, especially by this photoEquipment
I used my camera (Nikon D90 with 18- 105mm lens, a flash, and a reflex umbrella, and my tripod.Inspiration
I was trying to find another way to express my personality through a self portrait. I like trying new things, experience with lights. My goal was to show my personality without showing my face. Eyes and hair are a perfect mirror for the soul, you know.Editing
I used Lightroom for processing the picture. I’ve cropped the photo to the appropiate size, and edited its colour to black and white, because I thought, with these colours, the portrait will be more effective.In my camera bag
I always have my Nikon with me. If I go to take street photos, I usually take my tripod and my flash too. But my equipment really depends on what I want to shoot.Feedback
The secret is practicing. Practice as much as you can, and don’t be afraid to experiment with new things, and never lose your spontaneity. Because you can never know, what new point of viewpoint will you discover. Be Creative! :)
