Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the garden of the University's Natural History Museum. As I had finished my exams and the pandemic silencing the city, I quickly found out that I needed something to do. Bergen which is known for rainy days actually had some really nice days in early December so I went out to take photos.

Time

In Norway the sun goes down rather early in the winter. This photo was taken 3:19 pm and it was blue hour.

Lighting

Since I took this photo in the blue hour the light was pretty good. It was getting dark but I did not have to bump up the ISO.

Equipment

On this shoot I was walking around with no other equipment then my camera and my OLYMPUS M.45mm F1.8.

Inspiration

Already 2 days after my last exam I was getting bored as the city was pretty much closed. This pandemic has thought me to value my hobbies and given me a lot of time to practice them. My favorite photographers on IG, and youtube always inspire me to improve my photography and make me want to go out and practice.

Editing

Yes, I did some color grading on this photo. I did a lot of experimenting with the colors and found the gold color going really well with the pink and cyan/green colors.

In my camera bag

I have a tiny camera bag, so I always bring my camera with one lens. Some days I'll bring my tripod as well, but only if I am bringing an additional backpack.

Feedback

Try photographing during blue hour! If you are in a city, I recommend going to places such as museums and botanical gardens.
