Hello to all my friends in the Black and White community. I hope you are all doing well wherever you are and that everything is going smoothly. I'm Manti, back with another photography session and another blog. This blog is a continuation of the previous one, where we went to nature with a two-person music group playing harmonies and took some photos. This time, we took photos of Sasan, who is responsible for arranging the music and playing the keyboard. Sasan is very professional and has fast fingers when it comes to playing music, especially Azerbaijani music. First of all, thank you for your support. If you'd like to see their performance, you can refer to the end of the previous blog, where their beautiful performance and a very good play were featured. Most of our friends and acquaintances enjoyed this video.
Alright, let's get to the photos we took. Initially, Sasan was wearing a black t-shirt that matched the color of his pants, as well as the background and the keyboard he was playing. I wanted to direct my model's head towards the main light. I took my photo from a slightly low angle, which made my model look more dignified, and the mountain behind him was seen much better and more interestingly this way. For the second photo, we started to move the keyboard a bit, and he changed his clothes to a white shirt. Here, I asked him to stand exactly in line with his keyboard and put his hand on it. Just like in the other photos, Sasan was looking towards the light, and the light was hitting his face very well because he was standing at about a 45-degree angle to the light, which helped to have some light and shadow on the other side as well.
And this photo, this photo was a bit different from the others because Sasan had a special feeling towards his keyboard, and a deep connection seemed to have formed between the two. One of the most amazing photos taken in this part was exactly this one. Although I preferred that the clothes he wore be plain and less cluttered so as not to create this sense of distraction for the viewer's eye and to keep all the attention on the emotions that were captured in the photo between Sasan and his instrument. After this photo, we started taking long shots. I moved a little further away but used my 70mm focal length lens
In general, the larger this number and the higher the numbers in the focal length, the more well-shaped and handsome our subject looks. This was where Sasan put his glasses on his head, so we could have the eyes here, and I changed his pose a bit. The position of his legs was fantastic; liveliness and sportiness were felt in the photo
For our final photo, this was where Sasan had put his hand and was facing against the direction of the light. I used a reflector to brighten his face because his face was exactly against the direction of the sunlight. Sasan and Behzad were very satisfied with the feedback of the work, and we decided to have a group where the music part would be with them and the filming and performance part would be with me, and we could collaborate at least once a month and perform beautiful music in beautiful nature and share it with you. As the country moves towards warmer weather, nature also comes to life better, which leads to better and more amazing locations, which naturally has a significant impact on our output
Thank you for staying with me until the end of the post. I hope you had a good time in my blog. Until next time, farewell.
