Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in my first ever trip to Iceland. It's taken in the sea side of Reykjavik.

Time

It was a nice cloudy weather in Reykjavik. We took our after lunch walk on the city and decided to go walk next to sea side, where we met this beautiful monument.

Lighting

The cloudy weather gave an exciting and awesome lighting to do a black and whit pic out of it.

Equipment

I used my brothers Canon Eos 40D. It was my first time I ever hold camera, that big in my hand. From that trip my love against photography started. All thanks to my lovely brother!

Inspiration

I was inspired of everything surrounded. The positive aura of Iceland, the beautiful nature, sea side and other side of the sea was a beautiful mountain called Esja. All this combined gave me a good feeling to capture this moment. And till this day, it's the best foto I've ever done.

Editing

I really didn't do much. The weather and cloudy weather gave a nice black and white picture option, so I was happy over the perfection I saw on that!

In my camera bag

Now a days I have in my bag Canon eos 700D, flash, wide-angle lens, stock lens, memory cards, charger and Rode Videomic.

Feedback

Can't give any advice, because for me it was all in the moment. These kind of amazing pictures always come in a moment. But to give advice to someone.. Always think of taking picture and always think that do you wanna see this photo on someones wall or not!
