Today, there are some Indian dancers performing near our office building. Just couldn’t resist to click The colors of their outfits need to be captured.
As you can see, this is just a casual snap, available light during its worst time at 1pm, so harsh lights everywhere. I used spot metering to expose their skin tone properly.
Gear: Canon 7D + Tamron 18-270mm VC
Settings: f8.0 | 1/500 | ISO 500 @270mm
Post process:
- I did a 16:9 crop to give it like a wide screen movie effect
- Applied 2 textures and applied blending modes
- A little bit of dodging to brighten up a few areas of the shadow
- De-saturated some parts
Cheers!
