Behind The Lens

Location

i took this photo inside a lift back in 2017 when i was staying at a hotel in Kakkanad - kerala - india, while working on a film project as editor ..a malayalam movie starring Tovino Thomas (Tharangam (2017). During that period i had to use this lift so many times, there was a big mirror inside it and i used to smile at myself when no one was around :D i really loved the interior - the vintage look, the lighting condition and the vibe it provides. I remember.. each and every time i used it my mind keeps telling me to take a picture but i was so busy with my works and later the shoot got completed & i had to move. So after i am done with the packing, i took the camera and clicked this. i am not really a selfie kinda person, so took a picture like this... When i see this picture, i see myself in that mirror.

Time

Evening around 6pm

Lighting

I have seen these kinda lighting in so many movies but i don't know how to explain it to be frank am not good at explaining this, what i had in mind is what you see in this picture.

Equipment

Canon 6d 24-105 F4L

Inspiration

i have seen many pictures like this but i need to do something different so i tried this in cinematic style.

Editing

Yes, i use lightroom and photoshop. Most of the grading and final tweaks are done in photoshop while the exposure and some of the basic adjustments are done in lightroom. I don't know whether you get the exact feel i was talking about because i always upload low-res for display purposes. i like cinematic color grading and that what am trying to achieve. This was done at my early stages and since then i have improved a lot.

In my camera bag

Sony A73 Canon 24-105mm F4L sigma 35mm Canon 100mm L macro

Feedback

Go for it, but always experiment with what you have.
