The idea of
this photo was to make it look like a shot behind the keyhole. At first, it was
a very dark portrait, her face was the only part of the photo in light, and the
rest was just very dark, so I decided to use a brush tool and just paint the
rest of her face in the shape of a keyhole. I edited the photo in B&W, but
later decided to turn it into a color-splash one. In B&W, her eye wasn´t so
strong and noticeable. The photo was edited solely in GIMP, mainly using just a
black brush tool.
I took this
shot in my backyard, during an ordinary summer day without any obligations.
Shot with just a kit lens, so nothing special there. „There is no cheap equipment, only cheap
photographers“
Eventually, I started understanding how unique this photo really is and it has become one of my favorite photos. The photo got a lot of recognition on social media, mainly due to its unique look.
This is the evidence that you don´t need a DSLR and loads of lenses, a studio or a model. All that can stay behind for a good idea. The idea is what really matters, what makes a difference.
