Model: Chaveyo Zoest

Camera settings:
Shutterspeed: 1/350
Aperture: F / 2.5
Iso: 500
Camera: Canon 5DmkII
Lens: 85mm

Here you have a game where the model itself can influence how much light or how much shadow will appear in his face. He is standing on the dark side of a column, depending on whether he can step forward and whether step backwards can play the amount of light.

Because he has lowered his left shoulder in this photo, he has been able to put his body in the shade and direct his face towards the light.

Vintage Lenses

I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

Outside the tourist area photos.

These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.
