Behind The Lens

Location

The picture was taken at Florence (Firenze) in Italiy when we were strolling throught this wonderful old town very close to the dome.

Time

It was in the late afternoon.

Lighting

The light was not so very well beeteen the narrow roads but the white horses and the light sky were good contrasts to the rather dark street.

Equipment

A Nikon D5200 with a Tamron lens 18-200, no tripod. no flash, I hardly ever use them and there would not have been enough time anyways....

Inspiration

I think it is quite obviouse that this is a unique moment where you really find two pairs coinsitancely on the street in a real situation. It was a lucky shot, I had to be quick and also wait until they just hat the right position

Editing

Some photo-shop editing with light and sharpnes and contrast

In my camera bag

Nothing really, sometimes my macro lens. For me it is important not to have so much weight and so I can carry my equipment (camera) ALWAYS with me and hace it just at hand - hangigng round my shoulder. Otherwise you will not be able to take a lucky snapshot like this!

Feedback

ALWAYS have your camera at hand, always keep your eyes open and be quick but still carefull to take the right scene and a sharp picture...
