Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken at my room.Time
It was night.Lighting
The light from the left comes from a normal lamp. The main light is from the lighter.Equipment
My camera is a Nikon D5100 and the 35mm 1.8G Nikkor lens. No flash was usedInspiration
I think I was probably inspired by some 90's cigarettes commercials with western influences.Editing
I used gradiend filters to lighten the hat and the hands and most importanly I made the white balance cooler than the original in order to achieve a more "winter" feeling.In my camera bag
I have my Nikon D5100 along with the kit lens 18-55mm plus the 35mm 1.8G and a manual 50mm 1.4E. All nikkor.Feedback
I think that when it comes to "smoking-photos", the smoke must be one of the basic elements. So a good light to pop out the smoke is needed, maybe a backlight or anything, depending on the situation. Beard and hat are optional, but it all about character...
