Hello to all my friends in the Black and White community, I hope you are all doing well and everything is going smoothly there. I'm Manti, and I'm back with another photography session and another blog post. Today's photography is about a two-member music group, one playing the tonbak and the other the keyboard. Of course, these are the first parts of our photography, and here in the behind-the-scenes photos, you'll see what we came here to do.
The series of photos you see are taken next to a large mountain that I call the Energy Mountain. After we finished the videography part of our work, which I'll be releasing soon, the music guys asked me to take some friendship photos of them. I gave them some cool poses and asked them to stand in places close to the heart of this great Energy Mountain.
The mountain behind them, which was also the background of our video, had a mesh-like texture that I had never seen before in my life. It was a mountain with a mysterious feel, and I thought, why look any further for our photography and videography? So we camped there, and I did the photography there. Our first photo is a wide shot of Behzad and Sasan looking in different directions, and you can clearly see the mountain behind them. The large rocks, along with their contrasting clothes, create a black and white effect that fits well with our Black and White community. The position of their hands and the direction of their gaze are very important in the pose.
In the next photo, I came a little closer and shot from a slightly lower angle, which made my subjects tilt their heads down a bit. I really like Behzad's standing posture and the position of his legs; it has a sporty feel.
We repeated the same photo, but this time I asked Behzad to put his hand on his waist. I took the photo from further away to capture the mountain in this shot as well. In fact, it can be said that this is a rock.
I took the fourth photo a little closer, while they were looking at the camera, and I closed the frame very tightly. It turned out to be a cool photo. Then I asked them to look at each other, and I don't know why we men are like this, but when we look at each other, we start laughing. That's exactly where I took a photo of them laughing as soon as they looked at each other. Then I asked them to look at the sky, and this beautiful photo was taken.
The ancient festival of Nowruz is approaching, and I intend to release our instrumental music video as soon as possible so that you can enjoy listening to it. The last photo is a behind-the-scenes shot of the same work, in which I am also present. I hope you are all healthy, safe, and happy wherever you are. Until next time, goodbye.

My congrats.
Great photography. The big rocks in the back looks like turtle, to me.
