Behind The Lens
Location
At my home.Time
At my home, late at night. I was alone and sad, for the holidays. Photography was a means of grief.Lighting
Nothing special. The lights went out, but I slipped the Christmas lights into a big green, glass bottle. Cheerful and romantic lighting.Equipment
I was playing with my old iPhone.Inspiration
Artistic imagination. I captured the light, mixed up fairy tales about the Nutcracker and the old elf, and arranged it all for my artwork. Fairy tales, the artist and her artwork are celebrating Christmas.Editing
I was playing so I’m not quite sure, but I think I stepped up the contrast. I wanted to make the glass spiral ball clear. This ball is my favorite because it symbolizes the universe and spiritual growth, but at the same time the possibility of spiritual fall. And I don't want that at all.In my camera bag
Just a camera and a cell phone is all I have from photo equipment.Feedback
I would definitely recommend getting rid of fear and unnecessary consideration. Never compare yourself to already successful and famous photographers. Trust ourselves and listen to the inner voice that guides us. When I photographed this I was on the verge of tears, so I listened to my inner voice and photographed what I had close by. I strive to be an art painter, and photography is a tool for me. I have been doing photography for the last year. But now it also inspires me a lot.
