Location
I took this shot in the apartment i live in, it was on the ground floor and it has this view.Time
It was night time and it was stormy on that night, and i was like, why not take some photos of it.Lighting
For this shot, i pretty much waited a long time and keep snapping some shots till i get that one perfect shot with good amount of lightning in the sky.Equipment
I was using a sony a6000 with a sigma 30mm 2.8 lens. I didn’t usy any tripod or anything, only my hands and my camera.Inspiration
I was just strolling through the neighborhood, and seeing that it’s a stormy night, might as well just take out my camera!Editing
Yes i do! I like the concept of cyberpunk, which you can see in this shot i made it black and white and then i split tone with blue ish tone togive that futuristic tone to the shot.In my camera bag
I sold off my sigma 30mm 2.8, now j have a sony 50mm f1.8 and a sony 16mm f2.8, and i always have a prism in my bag.Feedback
For this kind of shots, you want to bump up your shutter speed a little bit higher, yes it’ll be dark, but you want to capture those lightning streaks, and then for post processing, what i like to do is to pull down the contrast slider and bump up the shadow slider a little bit, that way you gain back some details!
