Behind The Lens

Location

I was unexpectedly invited to check out the living room in one of the homes in a high-altitude mountain village in the southern part of China. People in this village have maintained the same ancient lifestyle foe hundreds of years.

Time

One early afternoon on a stroll to burn off what we consumed at lunch

Lighting

This picture was taken with natural ambience light. The thin air up in the mountain helped my camera lense capture the true colors bright and beautiful. I saw the sunlight lit up my objects with a super convenient angle coming from behind the door of the house and decided to wait for the facial expressions I wanted to capture.

Equipment

iPhone 6 - hand-held snap shot

Inspiration

I was so captivated but the mountain village and the hospitality of it’s people during an unplanned trip where visiting this ancient village wasn’t part of the itinerary.

Editing

This picture does not need a lot of post-production efforts although I have probably used the built-in dials within the iPhone 6 photo app for some light touch-ups.

In my camera bag

iPhoneX Sony 7a3 with Leica sumicron 35/1.4

Feedback

This is more of a lucky shot for me ????
