Location
This image was taken at a wooded glen beside the Heathcote River at Cashmere, Christchurch, New Zealand.Time
In the early morning.Lighting
Sunbeams were cascading through the the trees casting ethereal rays of light down onto the forest floor as mist rose slowly from a chilly stream. No additional lighting.Equipment
Nikon D70, 18-105mm Nikkor lens, handheld shot with no tripod, flash or other accessories.Inspiration
I was driving to work and came across this beautiful view on a chilly autumn morning. I stopped and took a quick detour, walking through a wooded glen to capture a selection of images of the river, sunlight and people passing through the scene to start their day.Editing
No additional post-processing was employed...one straight out of the box!In my camera bag
Backup Nikon 35mm film camera, external flash, tripod, various filters.Feedback
For me it's all about seeing various elements coming together to form a wonderful composition of light and colour and capturing moments seen in the mind's eye in order to share them with others :)
