Behind The Lens

Location

the photo was taken in a few seconds during a meeting of photographers and models back in 2016.

Time

while different people met each other to be creative and work together, Tom and I had a few moments to take some pictures. there was neither a special concept nor a special place. Just him and myself. I took the photo around noon - in the middle of September.

Lighting

I only work with available light.

Equipment

Since I am a minimalistic portrait photographer, I always use only my 50mm lens and my camera. Its a Nikon.

Inspiration

I loved his beard and his age. He was the only one who was much older than 20.

Editing

I always edt my portraits. Contrasts, colors and sharpness - until I like them.

In my camera bag

I only have my camera and my lens with me. And from time to time a little bit of holi powder.

Feedback

Just do it. If you meet an interesting face just ask and take a photo.
