Maasai Warrior in Sepia
I seldom like sepia toned images however, this one speaks to me for some reason which I am still trying to get my mind around. During my safaris, I try to set up a field portrait session featuring one or more of the Maasai Warriors from the village. This image was actually more of a grab shot as we walked from the school house to the location of the portrait session. It was not until I started to process this image that I realized just how far off my camera settings were. I had been shooting in nearly darkness inside the school and I failed to listen to one of rules: re-set the camera after shooting in extreme conditions.
I could spend all day photographing these wonderful people.
Nikon D4, 70-200mm f/2.8 @ 200mm, ISO 800, 1/3200 sec at f/4.5. Image was taken here
Cheers and happy photo’ing
