Behind The Lens

Location

It is an old historical building in the center of our city, called Aleksandrovskaya manor. It was a little bit dangerous, plaster is falling there from ceiling and walls. The aim of the photoshoot was to bring attention to a cultural monument, which is abondoned and forgotten by local authorities.

Time

It is about 15.00, bright light.

Lighting

There are two sources of light, both are natural: from the room from behind and from the window from the right.

Equipment

This was shot on Nikon d700 + nikkor 50 1.4 g. I do 70% shots on this pair.

Inspiration

I love my city, but it makes disappointed because of the state of buildings and roads. Not so long ago I made a project about roads called "I drown in you, Saratov". This is a new step about the beautiful building, which can be a center of art and very attractive for tourists. But noone is concerned about it.

Editing

I made it brighter and cleaned some garbage which didn't notice during the shoot. Some correction of colour and contrast is also used here.

In my camera bag

Of course Nikon d700 is my love and also two lenses nikkor 50 1,4 and nikkor 24-120 4 for wide angle. First is for fairytales, second is for anything else that can't be done with the first. Besides I like, how it catches contralight

Feedback

Watch the light, gather a command. Don't be afraid to do, even if you think you are not good enough. If there is no shoots, there's no progress.
