Sometimes in life, a man feels lonely. That's how I felt in those days. Alone, depressed. That morning, I was wlaking trough the fields looking for a frame that could describe my current emotional state. And I find it.
Seemingly alone, and around a crowd. It's just that we don't notice it. It makes you feel different from the others,. To stand out.
We are never alone on our jurney. There is always someone...

Behind The Lens

Location

I am an amateur photographer. When I go to take photos, it’s usually before sunrise or before sunset. I like to find shots that evoke emotion in me, a memory of a past event or ask a question through framing about the future. Basically, my guiding principle for photography is emotion.

Time

The photo was taken 21.06.2014. at 05.30 in the morning. That morning I went to photograph a river flowing through the woods. It is otherwise my favorite location in my area where I like to go take photos. On the way there, I was drawn to a tree that stands only on the horizon, as it is not along the main road I drove to my destination. I immediately stopped the car, made my way back to the turnoff from the main road to the narrow field road that led me to that half of the wheat and lonely tree.

Lighting

That morning, the conditions for the photo shoot were really good. The sun had not yet risen, it was cloudy. All you had to do was adjust the equipment well and squeeze the shutter.

Equipment

This photo was taken with a Canon EOS 650D and a Canon lens EF 17-40mm f / 4L USM. I have used a tripod too.

Inspiration

First of all, I was drawn to that lonely tree on the horizon. It wasn’t until I got to that place that the emotion, the frame, was born. I wanted to show something, seemingly lonely, and yet, surrounded by an endless amount of other plants. And that path that leads to the tree. It can serve as a way out of loneliness or as a path that can be approached and reach out, to drive away loneliness. The path is two-way. To escape from loneliness or to help. the choice is up to everyone how they want to use it.

Editing

When we look in magazines or on the net, we see a sea of perfect photos. Sometimes they seem a bit unreal. I do not hide that I would also like to have more knowledge for post-processing photos. But I don't have time for that. But still, I also make something basic in my photos. I work on tone, brightness, sharpness, color saturation and shadow / highlight ratio. That’s what I do in almost every photo. I’m sure a post-processing professional would make perfection, but I like my photos like this too, with less post-processing.

In my camera bag

I have the following equipment in my photo backpack: Canon 7D mark II, Canon 650D support, Canon EF 17-40mm f / 4L USM lenses, Canon EF 70-200mm f / 4L USM and Canon EF 50mm f / 1.4 USM. I use ND and polarizing filters, gradation filters. There is also a remote trigger. I also have a Manfrotto tripod from which I take 90% of the photos.

Feedback

What advice to give? Perhaps the best is the simplest advice. Be guided by emotions when choosing a shot. Let it awaken in you some sense of comfort. Then you will know that you have photographed the best.
