Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at the Central Square in my hometown Chernivtsi, Ukraine. I was walking to my work, when I saw the sun shining behind the buildings.

Time

It was afternoon. I remember that it was 21st of December, the shortest day in the year, and I was searching for something to show the symbolism in photoof that day. When I walked in the center of the city right at the afternoon, I thought it could be great chance to make my symbolic picture.

Lighting

With this picture I wanted to show magic and mystic of the shortest day in the year. The sun which shines behind the city buildings in it's low position can be a good example of it.

Equipment

This photo was taken with mobile phone Sony Xperia M2 Duo from hands.

Inspiration

The main things which inspire me the most and always are nature with it's magic, symbolism with it's double senses, and the city with it's architecture.

Editing

While I made the photo with the phone, so post-processing I made as well in the phone. Primary editings were done in the Snapseed application. Secondary and finally editings were done with VSCO app.

In my camera bag

In my bag I always carry Olympus OM-D EM-5 with Olympus M.Zuiko 17 mm f/2,8 and old soviet lens Hellios-44M 58 mm f/2 attached with m4/3 adapter. One more battery and SD card for 32 GB are in the bag as well. In my pocket I carry Sony Xperia M2 Duo (which I hope to change in close time).

Feedback

When you open your eyes, you began to see. When you began to see, you can start watching. I advice everyone to start warching for this extremely interesting world.
