Behind The Lens

Location

The up floor of my friend house is a studio for music lessons, it was there in the middle of Belgium capital Brussels

Time

It was after a long tour in the city of Brussels, the golden hour, the magic nature light shaded on the face of my friend, i thought at that moment that it could a great photo with natural light

Lighting

In this photo i wanted to pop up the eyes and reflect the reflection of the light in his eye, as well as the nice and soft shadows on the side of his head

Equipment

I took this photo with Canon EOS 750D 18-55mm, no more equipment involved

Inspiration

It is so rare to find a place inside which can let the golden natural light in. in this place I found it, soft and strong in the same time.

Editing

I add in photoshop a Gradient Map, an orange layer with 13% transparency

In my camera bag

My Canon 80D Canon 50mm Lens Canon 18-135mm Lens Extra battery

Feedback

Keep it natural, and simple as much as you can Use the natural light to show up the details
