Location

Right in our living room, showing how we are sometime actually up earlier than our doggies! And they are usually awake at the sunrise.

Time

Date/Time Original says, 27-Jan-19 08:27:42 - Not quite that early, but enough to have an interesting light in the room!

Lighting

All of it here: Metering Mode: Pattern, Flash: Auto, Did not fire, Focal Length: 4.5 mm, Shutter Speed: 1/1000 s, F-Number: f/2, ISO: 100, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00 eV... Nothing of that will ever repeat, but nevertheless...

Equipment

I used my go-to Olympus model TG-2, always at hand, quick to operate, and guaranteed to record any scene in mere seconds afret grabbing it!

Inspiration

Well, you see the inspiration in the photo. The lighting, sleeping doggies, shadows... everything was just right. :)

Editing

It just needed some slight cropping to better the overall frame. Nothing else was required.

In my camera bag

I find it easier to carry a photo vest than any photo bag. So I load my photo vest with whatever I might need for my photo session, walk or trip, while my photo bags usually keep the equipment I'm not using at the moment. The vest's many pockets usually contain two cameras, spare batteries, ND and CPL filters, and one photo clamp standing in for a tripod. Recently I include a small action camera, mainly for its wide field of view and resistance to water and weather. The vest also has large-lens pockets that contain a small water bottle, sandwich, or a bar of chocolate if I plan on being out for the whole day. There is about three meters length of paracord or similar strong, thin rope, one hefty pocket knife, and a lighter. My smartphone comes along too. It has yet another spare camera, but more importantly the Spirit Level App wich I use to make the phone a perfectly horizontal surface under my camera. This is essential for panoramic sweeps. The app is free, and requires no extra permissions whatsoever. The large back pocket of the vest is reserved for a lightweight rain poncho. If the weather suddenly plays up, the poncho neatly covers all. Using the tools mentioned above, much can be improvised along the way, so that's all I need to make photos.

Feedback

Always have a camera at hand - that one advice can't be repeated often enough! The scenes you miss will never come back... And of course, always enjoy! :)
