After a second and recent trip to Italy, I decided to create a series titled “Doorways of Italy“. The door shown here is one of the doorways I shot in a small village called Montefioralle. Montefioralle was once a fortress atop a small hilltop, and is now converted to residences. Each of the residences were fronted with a beautiful and distinct custom doorway, that gave the village a lot of charm and beauty.
What I decided to do in this Blog Post is to walk you through the steps from capture to print on how I created the photographs in this series. So let’s get started.
Equipment
- Nikon D700
- 24-120mm F3.5-5.6
Mode
- Aperture Priority – F11
- Bracketed, 5 shots, 1EV apart (-2, -1, 0, +1, +2)
All of the shots taken in this series were hand held, with shutter speeds ranging from 1/8 to 1/125 of a second.
