Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo of me in the small town where I was born. There are restrictions in our country due to Covid-19. For this reason, I cannot get the chance to take many photos these days. I woke up early in the morning for this photo and came to this point. I had the chance to capture this shot right after sunrise.

Time

As I mentioned in my statement, I took this photo just after sunrise. I can say, around 08:00. Due to the winter season, the sunrise is a little late.

Lighting

I tried to stick to the natural state of light as much as possible. There was also fog in the air because it was morning. He did not use a tripod and an extra light source while taking the picture. I also did not use any filters.

Equipment

I took the photo with a Nikon D810 body and again with a Nikon 28-300 mm lens.Other than that, I did not use a tripod, flash and filter.

Inspiration

I generally like to take landscape photos. My photographs, especially in foggy conditions, excite me. Frankly, the biggest factor that inspires me is nature itself. Natural light is very good for me. I see myself as part of nature. It also makes me happy to share these and similar moments with all the audience.

Editing

Yes; I did some editing on the original of the photo. But I do not change much on the original. This is my general behavior. I am editing all my photos as much as possible. For this photo, I primarily created effects such as lens distortion, histogram control, a little hue enhancement, contrast and light editing. There is never any manipulation on the photograph.

In my camera bag

If I am traveling for a long time, I usually buy 1 zoom lens and 1 wide angle lens with me. I have 1 body I own, that is D810. Of course, tripo will be with me for long-term travel. But for a short photo shoot, I usually carry a tripod and a multi-purpose zoom lens with me.

Feedback

It will be a general explanation, but my advice is to take pictures when the light is most appropriate. And one of the most important issues is of course being patient. If necessary, spending a few hours at the same spot can give you the best shot. If not, the subject should never be given up. And of course, it will always be useful to listen to and read the experiences of photographers who are more experienced than you when you have questions. I can say that this is the way I follow.
