I took this photo whilst on holiday in Lake Garda, Italy in 2013Time
It was a beautiful calm evening with hardly a ripple on the lake when I spotted the yacht with the orange sale reflected in the water.Lighting
The day’s bright sunlight had gone giving a fairly flat light which made the orange colour more saturated.Equipment
At the time I was using a Nikon D7000 with a 70-300 Zoom. The shot was taken at 85mm and was handheldInspiration
I love taking reflections in water and the bright orange sale really stood outEditing
I usually post process most of my landscape shots increasing the clarity and vibrancy of when needed. I use the saturation slider minimally as it can make colours look unnatural.In my camera bag
A camera body (currently a Nikon D800) a 24-70 zoom, a 70-300 zoom, polarising filters, neutral density filters and I either carry a light tripod or sometimes a monopod.Feedback
Wait for a calm day when the surface of the water is still to get the best reflections.
