Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on a hill near my house. It was a nice day at the beginning of Spring last year and this place looked magical. I am a hobbyist photographer, I don't have that much experience. Still learning though and trying to improve.

Time

This photo was taken in the afternoon, probably around 5pm, without the use of a special equipment, just a smartphone and my imagination.

Lighting

I wanted the shadows of the tree in the middle to be noticeable. The light was coming from behind which, in reality, was like a fairy-tale.

Equipment

This was shot with a smartphone, i.e. Samsung Galaxy S10.

Inspiration

I was going for a walk together with my family, the light was very pleasant, creating all these shadows, the moment was just perfect: beginning of spring, everything was coming to life, I was with my dear ones so I felt I had to immortalize the moment.

Editing

Just lighting and contrast in Snapseed, directly on my phone.

In my camera bag

I now usually carry my Nikon D3200 together with my prime less (35mm) and my zoom lens (55-200mm). These are not professional, however I like shooting with them. Also, when there's no room to carry the camera, I have my smartphone with me, just in case.

Feedback

Just live in the moment, enjoy nature and wait for the perfect moment. When you feel joy you start to see the world in a different way, more beautiful and that is when inspiration can strike and you can try to transmit to others, via your photographs, how lovely the world is in your eyes.
