Location
This picture was taken in a small village in Madagascar on a cold rainy day.Time
We were walking through the muddy village with a local guide in order to capture the local atmosphere and culture.Lighting
It was just clearing up during a rainy & cold day, quite typical of the winter in central Madagascar. The boy is keeping shop in the front window of his parents house, hiding in the shade.Equipment
In this case I used my small camera Canon G7X at ISO 200, 36.8mm, F 8.0 at 1/200 sec. This camera is great for street photography without drawing to much attention to the photographer.Inspiration
I love the harmony & peace of the setting, poor but honest and relaxed. No stress of big business.Editing
Limited post-processing: some cropping, reduced highlights and opened shadows using Lightroom 6. No sharpening or noise reduction, no vignetting.In my camera bag
Canon 6D with Tamron 24-70mm / Tamron 70-300mm / Samyang 14mm Canon G7X which I used in this caseFeedback
Try not to attract attention. Think ahead of what you want to achieve with the picture, what is unique about the subject.
