Villanova is one of the historic districts of Cagliari, where once there were many artisans. Now everything has changed, and only a few of them have remained. However, you can still smell the past, as if you were back in time, if you go to find them.

Location
The photo was taken in a beutiful atelier in Cagliari (Italy).Time
It was 5PM.Lighting
I used the natural light coming through the door rising the ISO.Equipment
Pentax KS2 and Samyang 10 mmInspiration
I was searching for something authentic, artistic and poetic. Something that in the days of the multinationals seem forgotten. I've found a district in Cagliari (Italy), where there are still many artisans.Editing
I converted to black and white, set the tone curve, increased sharpening and a little noise reduction.In my camera bag
Usually in my bag i have these lenses: SMC Pentax-D FA 100mm F2.8 Macro WR Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC OS HSM Macro C Pentax 40 mm limited HD Samyang 10 mmFeedback
Don't be afraid to use the "wrong" lens (a 10mm isn't properly a lens for portrait) to get something beautiful and alternative.
