Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken in Rajasthan,India

Time

This was taken in the evening. I had already prepared my camera to take a picture of the sunset but just as I was about to take a picture of the sun setting she walked in front of my camera and I ended up taking a picture of her silhouette. I really love this aspect of photography , where "chance" never cease to surprise me

Lighting

The lighting serves entirely as the background of my picture, and this contrast of the light an the shadows, to me makes this image quite mysterious and Mystical

Equipment

I used a NikonD90 and a 18-55 lens. No other equipment was used

Inspiration

it was really the moment that inspired me to take the picture.

Editing

Yes I usually just play a little bit with the shadows, clarity and saturation

In my camera bag

I usually carry my camera body along with a 18-55lens and a 55- 200 lens

Feedback

Always be patient while taken any picture because in photography even minute moments count.
