Mohammadpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh
this was an unplanned session.... we just decided to shoot some photos literally within minutes... the whole shoot lasted barely 10 minutes!!.... we didn't try anything fancy, yet, we wanted it to be representative... we took in a thematic way, rather than literally....
our subject was a confident young man... with an attitude.... we used his hood and made him look like a hooded warrior; though he's not a warrior; not even a boxer; but he's got the attitude of a fighter.... that attitude is always beyond visual; always protected by a strong self-belief....
we had two lights within the frame.... didn't make any effort to remove the lightstands from the frame... the two lights in the back were the brightest, yet not able to revel his full face.... that went more with the theme in our view... the two lights were two YN-560s in optical trigger mode, which were triggered by the main light, another YN-560 inside a Lastolite 24" Ezybox Hotshoe softbox, triggered by an Elinchrom Skyport radio trigger.... kept things simple inside the camera.... 28-80mm lens on D700 @f8....
a lot more to come soon enough....
