Behind The Lens

Location

Photo taken during a walk through the Heroic Cities Park in Saint-Petersburg

Time

We went for a relaxing walk with my wife, who was happy about her new purchase of a Louis Vuitton backpack (partially seen on the photo). Park was full of snow, but the weather was sunny, so we had a lot of light coming everywhere from. I truly consider most of the success from this picture comes to my wife's taste of clothes choice)

Lighting

Natural light

Equipment

Sony A77II paired with my freshly purchased (at that moment) Tamron 70-200/2.8 USD, handheld

Inspiration

I captured my wife on this alley earlier during Autumn season, so it was obvious to try another shot during winter

Editing

I usually process RAW files by pushing some highlights and shadows, I try to fill the histogram during this process, but that's all

In my camera bag

I used to carry a pair of 2.8 zooms and a 2.0 prime during my APS-C period, but now, as I went to A7RII I am carrying a single 50 mm prime with me

Feedback

When I went for using 2.8 telephoto zoom, I considered it to be a good tool to shoot close ups, birds, animals. Using it for a while I realized that it's almost perfect universal tool to capture portraits - large aperture and telephoto range offers great background rendering and Tamron A009 is just enough sharp lens for this kind of job
