Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken on a beautiful beach in Sardinia

Time

The photo was taken in full sunshine around 4pm in the afternoon in 12th of May of 2017. Notoriously it's the less time to do good photos. I'm happy about what I did.

Lighting

Illumination at that time of the day is said to be the worst for the strong contrasts it creates. The trick was to underestimate the photo at least 3-4 stops. This creates the pleasant effect you see. Absolutely natural lighting in full sun

Equipment

Free handshake with my Nikon D5 equipped with focal doubler and Nikkor 70-200. No other device used.

Inspiration

In addition to the beauty of the models, the perspective line inspired me to shoot. The plants that were between me and them created this atmosphere that I really enjoy

Editing

As a post production, I developed raw and then converted to black and white with Photoshop. I have slightly increased the definition with "Accent Passing". Nothing more. The secret of this shot (if secretly we can define it) is the under exposure when capturing the image by the camera.

In my camera bag

Nikon D5 and now also D850 Nikon 14-24; 24-70; 70-200 Nikon 85 and 105 macro

Feedback

Experimenting things out of the rules we read about books. Be creative and try new things even if the camera tools tell you that you are wrong.
