Behind The Lens

Location

This is one of my favorite photos taken by chance, at the side of the road to Yamal. This road is located in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug, Russia.

Time

Photo taken in December 2015 at 4 pm

Lighting

The last rays of the setting sun and the magnificent frost on the trees helped make this shot. True frost was -41 degrees Celsius

Equipment

The Canon 6D camera and the Canon EF 17-40 / 4 L USM lens behave remarkably well even when shooting in such extreme conditions. Tripod Manfrotto BeFree MKBFRA4BL-BH aluminum alloy, panoramic head.

Inspiration

I was shooting landscapes nearby and returning to the car, all in the snow and frost in the street saw that the road looks great. I shot the panorama.

Editing

In the process of preparing the photos, I combined the photos in Photoshop into a panorama, slightly corrected the horizon, adjusted the brightness, sharpness, and contrast. The rest was done by nature and the Canon technique.

In my camera bag

Usually Canon EOS 5D Mark 4 and a spare camera Canon EOS 6D, lenses Canon 17-40 or 16-35, spare batteries and flash drives fit into my Lowpack Fastpack Backpack. Be sure to have a kit for cleaning optics and most often there is a panoramic head.

Feedback

Do not be afraid to take pictures in the winter, in the cold. You only need to have warm and comfortable clothes, preferably membrane, spare batteries. And it is also necessary before you, after a photo shoot in the cold, get into a car or enter a room, hide the equipment in a backpack and don’t reach for another couple of hours
