Behind The Lens
Location
It's my home studio in Budapest. I completed an intensive photographer course last year and I set up a quiet place to experiment.Time
It is an indoor photo of an afternoon.Lighting

Nikon D5300 with 18-140mm focus, f/3.5-5.6 lens, tripod, studio flashInspiration
Spending definitely the second part of my life term, I’ve become interested in aging. To see the person behind age and wrinkles. My dream was to photograph older people. My approach would have been not the Photoshop-in-depth-wrinkles, but a child, who has experienced, say 70 years. But instead, the covid-19 lockdown came and the only model who is any time at hand, is me - to keep my studio skills alive and to develop. And a theoretical question: what a photographer thinks appears on the photograph. How does it work, when the photographer is on the other side?Editing
Yes, I did. I usually check my new photos first in the simpliest way for me: with the Windows photo viewer. If the image is acceptable, I run along with its features and try, how they fit to the photo, in five minutes. To this photo, as I remember, I added some light and some saturation. I didn't want to overthink it in Lr/Ps. Otherwise, I enjoy to use them, but it takes a lot of time for me to find a balance between painting and documentation and it is difficult not to immers and play and not to lose borders... You need to know, when you are ready.In my camera bag
My camera with zoom lens.Feedback
Don’t give it up in the model light! Autofocus will follow, once captured. Since then I improved my equipment with a remote release but unortunately I'm too busy now with other tasks, to have inspiration to try it.
