Location
This photo was taken in the Chattahoochee National Forest along the Chattahoochee River right outside Helen, GA after a winter snow/ice storm.Time
This was taken early in the afternoon.Lighting
It was an overcast day and we were expecting more snow. The sun came out for briefly for just a few minutes and left a nice sheen on the ice.Equipment
This was shot with a Nikon D5000 and Nikkor 55-200mm lens.Inspiration
My husband and I love ride around the N. GA mountains in his jeep and take photos, esp. after snow storms in the winter. I always take a few shots every where we go with our jeep to document our jeep adventures. The scenery around Helen in the Chattahoochee National Forest never disappoints and is always spectacular. We love nature.Editing
I did very little post-processing. Just a little tighter cropping and adjusting contrast.In my camera bag
Just my Nikon D5000 and Nikkor 55-200mm lens.Feedback
I am a self taught amateur photographer. I take my Nikon D5000 with me everywhere I go. You never know when a bear will run across the road or you will find a lovely wildflower you have never seen before or there will be a beautiful sunset you must photograph. That is part of the adventure, never knowing what you might find while jeepin in the mountains.
