Behind The Lens

Location

The picture was taken in a Herero community in Otjozondjupa Province in Namibia

Time

Afternoon, about 6AM, sun was about to go down.

Lighting

No, the nature took care of it.

Equipment

I used a Canon T70 with a dias film. No tripod, flash. Just out of the car, do some purchasing, take picture, and off we went. Typical turist behavior.

Inspiration

The Herero woman sitting close by her shop, with a doll (for sale) on her lap, and the special construction of the shop.

Editing

The picture was taken as a dias, later (about 20 years) it was scanned and processed (sharping, colors, cropping).

In my camera bag

At that time, just the camera T70 and a zoom lens, with some cleaning equipment wich could handle dust and sand for the desert.

Feedback

Go to Namibia! Great people!
