Behind The Lens

Location

this photo was made on the streets of Old delhi, near to Mean Bazar street. That no one pass by a street in Delhi is something very complicated and that peopledo not stop to see what you do, it is also. While taking the photo there were several people behind me asking why I was taking a photo of something that is broken

Time

That no one walks down a street in Delhi is very complicated and that people don't stop to see what you are doing is also very complicated. As I was taking the picture, there were several people behind me asking why I was taking a picture of something broken. I took the photo while I was wandering around aimlessly, after I had eaten and before sunset

Lighting

In the streets of India it is easy to take photos, the light goes with it, the colors stand out and the scenes appear anywhere. I remember this was an alley and but there was enough light to highlight the shadows

Equipment

The photo was taken with Canon 70D and 15-85mm lens

Inspiration

I have traveled to India several times and I never get tired of doing it, in every street you can find incredible situations or amazing images. Sometimes, you have to stop for a few seconds to observe the street and what looks like something destroyed and in ruins, can be an excellent composition.

Editing

some vignetting and light and shadow adjustment, plus converting it to black and white

In my camera bag

I have gone through all the brands and for a while I carried 7kg in the backpack, with a canon 5D Mark III camera, Tamron 70-200 2.8. Canon 27-70 and canon 50mm 1.8. Now I have a Sony Alpha6500, but I am not convinced by the 16-70 that it has. I have gained in lightness, but the difference in many situations is made by a good photographic equipment

Feedback

As you walk, don't just look at the front or sides. Stop from time to time and look around, even turn around. many times the same street looks differently toward the back side
