Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in a small park in the northeast of Madrid, Spain.

Time

It was a cold and sunny day, I had just left work at 2:00 p.m., and I really wanted to use a new lens, so I decided to take a walk before eating.

Lighting

The flowers were in a shady area and the sunlight was high up from the right of the image, ideal for getting a good bokeh.

Equipment

In my work, which has nothing to do with photography, I always have my little Fujifilm X-T10 and a good collection of vintage lenses. This time he wanted to release a Helios 44-3 that he had just bought.

Inspiration

From my first camera, a Zenit, I love the results Helios lenses give with flowers. That same morning, going to work, I saw in the park that there were some “Prunus nigra” that were beginning to bloom and the Helios 44-3 arrived. The light that there was that day made me make the decision.

Editing

I always use raw and jpg in the camera settings, In this case with a velvia film simulation, and adapting the different values ??I obtained the photo. No external software was necessary to that of the X-T10 itself.

In my camera bag

I generally always use my Fujifilm X-Pro2, and I always carry a pair of Fujifilm lenses, XF 35mm f / 2 and XF 16mm f / 2.8. Nowadays Zenitar 85mm f / 1.4 and Voigtlander Nokton Classic 40mm f / 1.4 are also indispensable to me. Also I usually carry a couple of Fujifilm 11mm and 16mm extension tubes, a small tripod and several batteries !!

Feedback

The interesting thing is to play with the light, and its angle, use a suitable film simulation that adapts to what we want and take several shots changing the parameters offered by the camera.
