Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo during a visit to my hometown in Poland

Time

It was around midday, it was an overcast day. I love shooting when it’s overcast

Lighting

Since it was an overcast day which I love , I was able to apply the pastel grading which would normally look quite off on a sunny day with harsh lighting

Equipment

I took the photo with my iPhone . It’s not all about the gear , it’s all about what you find interesting around you . I don’t spend hours setting perfect environment for my photography, I react to what I find interesting which in this case was the architecture of my home town

Inspiration

I have known this area since I was a kid as it’s near my home in Poland . Since I got into photography I started to pay attention to things that are part of my life and look at them from a different angle

Editing

Yea I have applied pastel filter which I thought was interesting given that the buildings are actually dark and grey . I added my own mark and it looks like it worked . Thank you for the award

In my camera bag

I have my iPhone as well as Fuji XT3 mirrorless and I love both of them.

Feedback

Don’t wait for hours to take photo , trust your instinct and shoot what you find interesting.
