Behind The Lens
Location
I take this photo im my house. The idea was create somthing that ilustrate the 4 elements.Time
I take almost 1 hour to get the best photo, to creat the best composition and i have to try a lot of times the effect of the fire.Lighting
I used 4 Nutella cups and some elements as dry straw, moss, small plants, water, acrilic paint and phosphor. Those 4 diferente elements have diferente colors and react with the light in a diferente way. There was the major dificult. The fire iluminates a lot all the scenario. The big challenge was combine all together.Equipment
The lens was a prime, Nikkor AF 50 1.8 D, at f/3.5 and 1 seconds of exposure.Inspiration
I like a lot conceptual photography, this is not unike but is my vision of the 4 elements.Editing
