Location
Hello, this photo was taken at the Louvre in Paris, during the exhibition of the photography 2015.Time
After the exhibition of photography in Paris, I wanted to come back here to the Louvre for this photo that was important to me. So I went here to November 6 to 23h to be sure have no people on the photograph.Lighting
That night it rained and the light was reflected from everywhere, the right conditions were met and the bonus Eiffel Tower lit up the right side of the pyramid!Equipment
This was shot on Canon EOS 6D with Canon EF16-35mm f/4L IS USM and Manfrotto befree tripod.Inspiration
It's just a mythical place, the heart of the Louvre visited by thousands of people coming across the planet. This place is filled with history, that of our country.Editing
A simple editing black and white, some vibrancy to the colors and that's it!In my camera bag
I have two bags. One with my Canon 6D and my Canon 50mm f1.8 lens, Canon EF 16-35mm f2.8, Tamron 24-70mm f2.8, Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 and Tamron 90mm f2.8 with Manfrotto tripod. Then another lighter bag with two lenses and Fujifilm XT10 +18-55mm f2.8-4 and 27mm f2.8 with a Manfrotto tripod befree ideal for travel!Feedback
Yes have a tripod and a camera with a timer and a manual mode. For the settings f8 for good sharpness and the least possible to iso (50 or 100). Come very late to avoid people if possible after a rain for a beautiful light!
