First random portrait by domenicododaro

First random portrait

Attended a workshop at the school of photography where I spent some time ages ago. Quite fun; I managed to steal a few random portraits. Random because the lighting was professional, but I wasn't supposed to shoot, so I did it from very unconventional PoVs and with a very inappropriate lens... but fun nonetheless! You'll have to stand a little selection in the next days!
This one is fascinating. So great in b&w.

A good steal... good that she was posing in B&W!

@alophoto Thank you, Amanda!
@yrhenwr As a matter of fact...

A candid at 1/12 sec at f/1.4 - impressive.

@vignouse I love your technical comments, Richard! I fear however that here the exit data are mistaken: The speed is correct and I was shooting wide open, but the lens is the summicron 35 f:2. Thanks a lot!

@domenicododaro Still impressive ;-)

Why are the mistakes sometimes the photographs! Here's to more of them I reckon.

Sneaky you!!! But I like this one very much.

I love sneaky shots, so much more interesting than posed models. This is great.

@vignouse thanks a lot... of course I meant the “exif” data, but the apple corrector did not agree...
@caseyrybeck agreed! Learn the rules to break them, as they say! @joemuli 😊🙏🏻
@mbrutus thank you very much!
@golftragic thanks a lot. Actually all of us would pose for the photographer, and most of us did try to catch a sneaky shot!

L’importanza dello “spazio”

@caterina ah certo! Grazie!
July 14th, 2018  
@domenicododaro Wonderful, on both counts.

Very Sneaky, I like it.. I can just picture you there with you camera in 'stealth' mode, so no-one can hear you clicking away.

@deborah63 I was very well concealed among a bunch of other photographers-models, shooting like there was no tomorrow...
July 15th, 2018  
@deborah63 Oh: and thank you, of course!
July 15th, 2018  
I like the untold story of this one.

To push limits is big component of creativity. Like how you shot on the sly.

@allie912 Yes, there is one.
@joysabin No better hiding place than in plain sight! Thank for all your comments!

1/12th! I like this image. Too bad she did not look into your lens it would have made the image even better as she has expressive eyes.

@pickerandagrinner I have been really daring, I admit... but, as the ancient Romans said: audaces fortuna iuvat (luck helps the daring). Thank you!

@domenicododaro I love the image. People make the most compelling subjects. Some photographers have the courage and personality to engage and get people to let their guard down. I can do it with friends but not with strangers so far.

@pickerandagrinner Well, this was quite a curious situation: about fifty complete strangers gathered for this three-days workshop, divided in groups and then thrown in the fight. The photographer was extremely effective in getting the model's attention and capturing his/her mood.
