As part of my workshop 'the Decisive Photographer', I did a one hour live shoot. I wanted to play it fair and didn't check the location or anything in advance. We just took a walk and stopped when we saw some good light, backgrounds, ... for portraits. Thanks to some of the people in the class for modelling.
This picture is part of the demonstration of my 'under cover' technique. This is based on the fact that the light usually gets a lot better when the subject stands under some cover . Here it was a garage and by having the subject stand about 1 meter in the garage, the light becomes more directional than in the open shade. So the open end of the garage becomes the main (natural) light.
