1.5 - "Needs Work" 

This image was shot on Sony a7iv with Tamron 35-150 f2-2.8, at 1/80th, f2.8 84mm iso 125.

This was the Sunday morning of Landjuweel festival Amsterdam, a group of friends chilling in the dappled morning sun after a wild night. This photo is not posed. They were just looking up at me after I raised my camera. The photo has some minor edits in dynamic range, reducing the shadows a bit in the background, en making the sun spots a little bit less harsh on the subjects, and upping the shadows a bit on the 4 people. Added just a little bit of blue in the shadows to give it a bit more color contrast. All in all tiny adjustments.

I took this photo in august of 2022, after getting my camera and lens two weeks before. Got into photography during Covid with my iphone. This is the first shot I was really happy with.
