Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in old Quebec l always make sure to take the opportunity to learn as much as possible from a photography experience and reflect every newly earned skill into the next shoot. Considering the importance of documenting current events, also I took special care of factoring in the significance of this particular sight.

Time

This photo is probably one of my photos that I really like. I remember when I left on Wednesday, April 22, 2020 to go for a car ride. I went to old Quebec to take beautiful pictures and this is where I was able to make beautiful achievements like the photo I presented to you, taken at 13:52 pm .

Lighting

When presented with this opportunity for a photograph, I considered how busy this street normally is day-to-day. As a great way of contrasting its known hustle and bustle, I opted for a muted colour palette and a lower IOS as a way of obtaining a dramatic, meditative image.

Equipment

This photo was taken with a Canon rebel t6i with an 18mm-55mm f / 8 lens

Inspiration

I am currently exploring my own photography style by experimenting with different techniques and locations. I was inspired to take a photo of the empty St-Louis Street as remembrance of the current historical pandemic, and to highlight the dramatic quiet our city wrapped in almost overnight.

Editing

Photography often requires post-editing in order to achieve the desired final result. The softwares I use include Luminar 4, and Aurore to add light touch ups. I prefer for my photographs to retain an organic feel so I limit the amount of editing I apply. For this image, the extent of my touching up stopped at creating a black and white photograph.

In my camera bag

The first thing I pack for a shoot is, of course, my Canon Rebel T6i, as well as three lenses, and my flash card. Despite being essential to my work, as any photographer knows it’s an achievement to be able to keep things light in your photography bag when you’re planning a long day of shoots.

Feedback

To take advantage when you have the chance to take extraordinary photos take the time to take the photo well be patient and wait for the right time to prepare this well adjusted camera the flash lens and other
