365 Project : Day 225

Finding an interesting shot in portraiture is quite different compared to landscapes. The thought process is different when composing; I myself find portraits more challenging because you need to capture a specific look which can happen at any moment, compared to landscapes in which you have more time to compose and get that perfect shot we want. But, both are very rewarding once the image in your camera matches the image you have in your mind.

Gear: Canon 7D + Sigma 17-50 f2.8 OS HSM
Settings: f2.8 | 1/100 | ISO 100

Strobist:

  • Dodging and burning

Cheers!
