Behind The Lens
Location
The portrait of Berber was taken in the Zagora Desert in Morocco.Time
I love this portrait because I think that it's one of the pictures of my Life, after that It has one after and one before. I realized what I want to do in my life, Photographer. It was taken on 26th January, 2015 at 07:24 AMLighting
Only the SunEquipment
For this portrait I used My Canon 600D whit the basic lens 18-55 3.5-5.6, with these parameters: 42 mm f/5.6, ISO 100, 1/320s.Inspiration
I took inspiration from the beauty of this old Berber, her wrinkles so marked by years spent in the desert sun make it quaint and charming.Editing
To emphasize the beauty of this Berber, I edited this photo taking inspiration from Dragan.In my camera bag
I love the street photography and usually when I go out to take pictures, I only choose a fixed lens and I carry around only one depends on photos that I want to do. Normally I choose a lens between these 14 mm, 28, 35 and 50 mm.Feedback
I believe that rules are made to be broken. I know that a portrait has to be done in a vertical, I know that for a portrait Buo must use a 80mm lens at 100/105 mmm, I know that I cut the chin of the Berber. But this approach would not allow me to convey what I wanted to convey with this photo. So I personally always recommend you follow your instinct and take pictures, doesn't matter if you have a 600D or 1Dx mark II or a Pentax K-1 or a Nikon D5. All the great photographers of the past, photographed with toys compared to the technological cameras today, but their pictures remained in history because they have done with the heart. Yes, the quality helps, but does not make the photographer.
