Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was teken on one of the many holy days in India in Udupi Shree Krishna Mutt

Time

This photo was taken around lunch time when literally hundreds of women were lining up for a free lunch.

Lighting

The distribution point was in a very large festival tent. Since the tent-cloth had a yellow tint I had to adjust the white balance in post production.

Equipment

I was shooting with a SONY A7RII and a Zeiss 24-70mm lens.

Inspiration

It was difficult to get eye contact with the girl, because as a western visitor one really stands out with a camera pointing at people. She was very shy with a beautiful smile and without being too intrusive, I wanted to capture this shyness.

Editing

Post processing was, as mentioned above, mainly correcting the white balance.

In my camera bag

Currently my bag comprises the following: Sony A7RIII Zeiss 55mm Zeiss 25-70mm Sony G 12-14mm Sony G 70-300mm

Feedback

Try not to be too intrusive and try to make contact without the camera at first. Once some sort of contact has been established you can bring out the camera. This is the exact reason why I am shooting with a Sony Full Frame, because it is less overwhelming than a full size DSLR with a huge lens.
