Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in Silverdale in the Auckland area of New Zealand.

Time

The photo was taken around 6.30 in the morning. I was lucky enough to be staying in a house overlooking the valley. I awoke to see the morning mist lit by a beautiful sunrise.

Lighting

The lighting was virtually as you see it in the picture

Equipment

I used a Nikon D800 fitted with a Tamron 70 - 300mm zoom. I used the zoom to isolate a part of the landscape.

Inspiration

When I saw the amazing lighting, I kept out of bed, grabbed my camera and took a number of shots. This one turned out to be the best one

Editing

The only post processing was to warm up the picture slightly to enhance the orange sky.

In my camera bag
