Location
This photo is taken outside the Amusement park Bakken in Denmark.Time
I guess the time of day is around 14:00. It had just rained which made the photo so much more moddy.Lighting
This is all natural lightning and as I said earlier the rain that had just fallen really gave the scene a nice feel.Equipment
Here I used my Canon EOS R with the Zeiss Milvus 35/1.4 Distagon. Since this was an after work activitity going to Bakken I had had a few beers before and I must say that I am still amazed that i managed to nail focus in that merry state that i was.Inspiration
The inspiriation came suddenly when I say this man walking in the middle of the wet road and not on the sidewalk as everyone else. The wet tarmat and his special calm stride and clothes all just seemed to fall into place. So when he had passed i walked out into the road and took one photo of him and didin't think more of it. But the day after when I reviewed my photos I was really happy too see how it came out.Editing
its been some time ago now but I have mad small changed to the usual like contrast, higlights and so on but nothing mayor except perhaps cloned some very distant colorful cars in the distance that was very distacting.In my camera bag
I normally wear a mirrorless camera with a 35 or 50mm prime on and and ultra wide lens and tele lens. All primes.Feedback
My only advice is, Don't hesitate if you get the slighest urge to shoot something do it. I still have to tell myself this everyday. better to have taken the shot and knowing. And of course have fun.
