Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken on a deserted beach in the Sulcis region of SardiniaTime
It was taken at 4 pm in full sunshine and with a hellish heat. Definitely the hand clock suitable for taking pictures.Lighting
Only natural light provided by the sun to peakEquipment
I used my Nikon D5 equipped with Nikkor 70-200 lens. Hand free.Inspiration
The inspiration came from the strong contrasts that at that time the sun gives. Contrasts that prevent many photo slogans but that, with a little inventive, allow you to make good photos. The presence of a model from the fantastic physicist then inspired the shotEditing
I developed the raw file by lowering the light at certain points. Moving to Photoshop I lightly shaded the shadows. Finally, I emphasized the definition of the details.In my camera bag
Now I'm normally moving with Nikon D5 and Nikon D850 The goals I always bring are the Nikon triad consisting of 14-24; 24-70 and 70-200. I then got the 2x Nikon and the 85 1.4 over the 105 macro. Stand and flash SB910. Snapshot Data: 200mm; f.4; 100 iso; 1/8000; spot.Feedback
Experiment and experiment. Sunshine light is not the ideal, but a way to make some interesting photos is surely. In this case I have underestimated at least 3-4 stops so that the effect on the lights almost becomes negative. A photo taken with the right exposure would have burned the whites and made the banal photo.
