What is the song of the river? Does it really sing a song? To know this answer I had to spend a decade on the river. When I look back, I recall those uncountable enigmatic moments on the soft river. This magical river and its simple stream makes a strange spell on me!

Behind The Lens

Location

I captured this shot in Gaibandha which is countryside of Bangladesh. This place is located in the northern part of Bangladesh.And there is a mighty Brahmaputra river is flowing there.

Time

No, doubt it is one of my favorite shot. I was coming back from a small village which is situated in the middle of the mighty Brahmaputra river. This village name is Goinar potol. Interesting fact is Luxembourg Minister came in this small village to see the activities of Friendship NGO. When she left by the chopper i was returning to the river embark on the boat. It was sunset time. I had to wait quite long time for the boat. Meanwhile, a boat is coming from long way. The light was natural and enchanting! It was coming out of the cloudy sky.This beautiful light was illuminating on the river, on the boat.I was fascinated to see this and started to click my camera.......

Lighting

As i said there was breathtaking light was coming out from the cloudy sky. And it was widespread on the middle of the river. I was waiting while the boat will come beneath this sparkling light! I was crazy to see this enigmatic view and started to click. Finally, i was able to capture the perfect moment of the drama.

Equipment

I took this shot by Sony A7II. I used Sony 24-70 f2.8 lens here. I did not use any tripod here.

Inspiration

What is the song of the river? Does it really sing a song? To know this answer I had to spend a decade on the river. When I look back, I recall those uncountable enigmatic moments on the soft river. This magical river and its simple stream makes a strange spell on me! A natural breathtaking light from the nature always tempt me to go closer the subject and frame the subject. The riverine of Bangladesh and the people and their struggling lifestyle always make spell on me. The breathtaking light from the sky over the wide river took my all the attention and i could not resist to click one after another!

Editing

I took this shot in raw. I tried to make it simple and wanted to show the real essence of the place and nature. Personally, i do not like overediting. I always try to honest with nature what i visioned and witnessed by my eyes.

In my camera bag

Honestly, i love my camera Sony A7III. I always carry one lens which is my favorite Sony 24-70f 2.8. If i go to travel for long time then i take 70-200 f.4 lens in my bag, specially while i have target to capture landscape otherwise i carry one prime lens 85 f1.8

Feedback

I love natural shot therefore, i hate to capture set shot. I wait for for the perfect momentum. Even it takes 1000 minutes does not matter! I travel, open my eyes and see something stunning! And i started to click to frame it, frame in my soul! When you can you do justice with your soul and vision, you must capture something noteworthy shot! May be this kind of shot would be less but it would be great no doubt at all......
