Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on top of the "Monte Rosa", 4554 meters above sea level. I wanted to remember how it was wonderful to get in there and that's why I decided to take a picture with a fish eye!

Time

It was taken at about 10 am, after 5 hours of walking on the glacier! That day we woke up at 5 am to start walking! It was fantastic to start our walk when there was still the moon in the sky. All of us had a headlamp to see where we put our feet. Simply Awesome!

Lighting

I wanted to give the impression of being on top of the world, for this I used a particular lens and gave the sky a deep tone!

Equipment

I used a Nikon d300s with a Nikkor 10.5 fisheye

Inspiration

When I was there I realized that one of the luckiest men on earth. See the spectacle of nature has been wonderful for me. I wanted to make a photo that could make me relive every day that emotion. As for me I did: every time I look at it I remember the feeling of being on top of the world!

Editing

no, no post process.

In my camera bag

It depends: when I go underwater I have an Olympus PEN epl1 with its case. Otherwise I have a nikon d300s with a fiseheye, a Nikkor 17-35mm and a 105 micro.

Feedback

Just take a fisheye lens and directs the camera down: you'll see the world in a new perspective, exciting and creative!
