Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken north of the city o Thessaloniki, Greece.Time
It was mid day and I was just wandering around some nearby ruins when I came across this scene.Lighting
The scene was perfect, the lighting just right, and I took the picture.Equipment
Nikon Aperture f/4.3 Shutter 10/12500 Focal lnth 85/10Inspiration
The inspiration came from the setting: there wasn't a soul around, only the sound of the bells that the sheep wore around their necks. The rich smell of wild oregano and the blue sky made it another memorable day in Greece that I just had to captureEditing
There was no post-processing.In my camera bag
I normally carry a 50 mm and a telephoto and most recently a 70 to 300mmFeedback
You always have to be aware of your surroundings and, unfortunately, very oftenit is a matter of being in the right place at the right time. Having said that, Greece offers many opportunities for the photographer. Most people know about the islands, but the interior of the country with its mountains, streams, lakes and people offer countless opportunities for the photographer.
