Location
This picture was taken in a park at the Monte Ortobene, SardiniaTime
At around 10:00 amLighting
It was cloudy and the sky was gray, was going to rain. The light was soft and penetrated by tree branchesEquipment
Nikon d7100 and nikkor 50mm f1.8Inspiration
The model in question is a free spirit like a pirate, this style is well for himEditing
I've made the classic dodging and burning, I slightly desaturated colors and given to green a more mysterious aspect. Accentuating the shadows I wanted to do more "hardness" to the boy.In my camera bag
I have zoom lenses and fixed focal. I normally used fixed because give sharper images, are smaller and lighter. I use for portraits a reflector (gold, silver or white) indispensable in this field of photography.I have two Nikon cameras and an assistant who always helps me.Feedback
I always recommend to be inspired by nature, a film and a book. Observe but not to be influenced too much by other photographers, because each of us has his own style. For this photo I let myself be inspired by the same model, bringing out his mysterious appearance.
