Behind The Lens

Location

This B-W shot was taken near a small lake in the Paris suburbs.

Time

It was made probably in 2005 in the afternoon.

Lighting

I was lucky. It was a summer and cloudy day. So, droplets on my model's skin were still visible. To highlight her fair skin, i avoided a light background and underdeveloped my film.

Equipment

I used a Nikon FM2, 2/85mm, T-Max 400 ASA, 1/500, f/8, natural soft light.

Inspiration

I love to photograph a woman after her bath. Freshness is my source of inspiration.

Editing

I developed my film in Kodak D-76 and printed it with an enlarger Focomat 1C.

In my camera bag

Canon F1, 2,8/14mm, 3,5/19mm, Nikon FM2- MD12, 2/85mm, 2,8/80-200mm, a lot of b-w and color films for my reports.

Feedback

The only advice i give is Patience and Passion.
