Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken in the old lanes and bylanes of my city Kolkata.

Time

This was taken around a late afternoon. I was just shooting around the area and saw this old store which made me think of times before the shops became all modern and malls rose up. These shops were an essential part of people's lives.

Lighting

It was late evening so the light is quite low. So the iso had to be bumped up so that the motion is frozen.

Equipment

Just my camera and lens.

Inspiration

The fact that such stores exist even after so many years and still continue to run

Editing

Very basic color corrections and cropping.

In my camera bag

I have a Canon 80d with a 18-55 and a 50 mm f1.8 and somtimes a tokina 11-16 f2. 8.

Feedback

Just look around yourself for moments and stories and keep shooting.
