Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the garden near my home. I just covered the ground with a piece of black fabric and started to shoot.

Time

I adore natural soft light. I had worked in late evening when the sun was low.

Lighting

I didn't use any light equipments that day. It was natural light only.

Equipment

I shoot with Canon 650 D. The lense was a manual Helios 44m. That's all :)

Inspiration

My model Alena has inspired me to take this photo. Her hair was like a crown in the lightleaks of sunset. So we did it. :)

Editing

I use Photoshop only for retouching and editing my photos. There was dodge'n'burn retouching and color editing during post-processing steps.

In my camera bag

You could find a Canon 650 D, my lenses (Canon 1.4 50mm, my favourite Helios 77m-4, Helios 44m, Jupiter 37A), and a reflector.

Feedback

Try to see the beauty in every face around you! Love what you do! Follow your only instincts during shooting.
