Location
This photo was taken during the funeralof a niece-in-law in Tinongdan, Itogon, Benguet, Philippines. As of common practice among indigenous people black pigs are butchered for lunch before the burial. This is a picture of a man cutting meat into thin pieces.Time
The photo was taken at around 11 am. As it is customary to have lunch before a burial.Lighting
It was kinda cloudy and I used portrait mode with stage lighting.Equipment
I used an IPhone 12 proInspiration
It just occurred to me that it would be nice to take a picture of hands cutting the meat into thin strips. Just a spur of the moment idea.Editing
A did a little vignette adjustment just to get the right darkness on the sides so the eye would focus on the hands.In my camera bag
Since I'm into mobile photography, I usually carry two or three brands of mobile phones. Different scenes turn out best on different phones.Feedback
If you want to capture something you really want people’s attention to concentrate on, use the portrait mode using stage lighting. Then you can adjust it on any photo editing app to your liking
