Behind The Lens
Location
Egypt, Peninsula of Sinai, Saint Kathrine City, at the top of Mount Sinai, also known as Mountain of Prophet Musa or Jabal Musa, at 2.285 km height.Time
Minutes before the sunrise.Lighting
Before the sun appears in the sky, minutes before the sunrise , the light is very soft and the fog at this time in winter between the mountain layers act as a diffuser for the light and at the same time hide some details making the layers as if they are combined with each other.Equipment
Canon EOS 650D with a 55-250 mm lensInspiration
This is considered to be a holy place where Prophet Musa walked and talked to God. Hiking in night to reach the top of the mountain by dawn is a great experience which gives you an inner peace. after trekking for hours in darkness and coldness, reaching the top and witnessing the sunrise is another fascinating experience. In this photo, I tried to convey my feelings in this place to others because I felt that the whole scene is just like a wonderful dream.Editing

It isn't only a photography trip, it is also a hiking trip so you should test your physical ability to make it first specially that you will be carrying extra weight for camera and lenses while hiking. You should got prepared with essential first aid tools and suitable clothing depending on the timing of the hike. Also, you should be accompanying a guide who is an expert in such tracks.
