Behind The Lens

Location

Very simple....I took it in front of our favourite Tattoo studio where we met Asta whom we knew before. She looked so pretty I had to take this photo.

Time

Oh it was early afternoon, cloudy, quite cool, a bit windy but a little shy sunray looked trough the clouds - I loved that light - which made her look so sweet.

Lighting

Nothing additional to what I already said - of course no flash - I never work with flashlight.

Equipment

My beloved Nikon D7200 mit my allrounder-lens on it - the Sigma 18-250mm DC Macro f/3,5-6,3.

Inspiration

SHE was the inspiration. We met her and immediately I knew I simply had to take this shot.I think the best photos (of humans) are those that come to us spontaneously. I love it to catch people within a real, honest moment or feeling. I don't like to take staged pictures.

Editing

Oh...just a bit desaturated, bit sharpen nothing uncommon, no presets or anything like that. But yes, I did it with Lightroom ( NOT PS! I don't use PS - never)

In my camera bag

Look above - Nikon D7200, my Sigma 18-250mm, maybe a tripod, an infrared- remote....depends on what I want to take photos of. If I wanna do macro, I'll take my macro lenses with me, if I wanna do land- or seascapes, I additionally will take my ultra-wide angle lens with me.

Feedback

Be spontaneous, be brave, always have a smile on your face and love for what you're doing with you. Your instinct will lead you!
