Whereas I used to be looking for the most effective vantage spot and composition, an Indian man got here by speaking over the telephone. He was so engrossed within the telephone dialog then he stopped abruptly proper in entrance of the darkish “mirror”. His physique measurement virtually occupied one-third of the body and I believed it might create a stability within the composition together with his reflection on the fitting facet; two-thirds of the body.

As he was speaking, he stored transferring and turning round till the second he stopped, I launched the shutter to seize this shot at a shutter velocity of 1 / 4 second. The aperture was set at f/4.5 and ISO stays at 200. Once I was about to take one other shot, he moved away from that spot, and therefore I acquired the shot beneath.

Fortuitously, one other fellow got here by, sporting a pleasant polo high and a pair of blue denims. His face was distorted with movement blurs which creates a pleasant impact. So was his reflection. The white blurry factor on the far proper is the reflection of a bypassing automobile. Take a better on the reflections, you’ll see strains much like that of TV display screen interlaces which I just like the impact that provides as much as the general movement blurs.

OK let me present you the contact sheets of all of the pictures I made as I used to be making an attempt exhausting to work on the scene with the darkish “mirror” and reflections.

After a quite a few pictures, I modified place and turned my lens the wrong way. Someway, the ambient lighting wasn’t favorable however I went forward to take a number of pictures. I even moved my lens diagonally making an attempt out some ICM impact and it turned out nice. After post-processed it in Photoshop, that is the consequence. I actually just like the dazzling lights impact and the physique movement blurs that creates this surrealistic summary visible.
