Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photograph in Kashmir while visiting my friends in the hill station.

Time

Right after I woke up, i was greeted with the morning tea and some bread to eat with it. That is when i took this picture.

Lighting

It was a dark room with a few windows, and I love working with natural light.

Equipment

Shot on Nikon D700 with a 24mm lens.

Inspiration

I was documenting my journey to Kashmir. It was a solo trip that i went on. With all the unrest thats been going on in Kashmir, I found it to be a very friendly locality and the people there were quite nice to me.

Editing

Yes, i love post-processing because thats how you create something thats entirely yours. I love experimenting with my images, so i spend hours on the computer trying to fix my exposure and contrast.

In my camera bag

Normally i carry my iphone 5s everywhere, which is pretty much all you need these days. But sometimes, i carry a Nikon D700 with 24mm lens.

Feedback

I was pretty much ready with my camera settings before i even decided to pick up my camera for this shot. Being ready does come in handy. Let it happen, and don't try to control it, thats the thing with Documentary photography.
