Location
I took this photo while I was on a trip to Italy. I stopped in Pisa on a day trip I was taking to Venice.Time
I was out in the late afternoon for this particular shot. The clouds gave the effect that it was a bit later than it was and the light hit the buildings in the exact right way to make the shot really stand out.Lighting
I wish that I had something more technical to share about the light here, but the honest truth is that sometimes nature just does your job for you and makes your shot magical.Equipment
I was just shooting with my Canon 40D that day. No other equipment was used.Inspiration
Simply wanting to capture all of what I was seeing. It was so stunning and I wanted to have a memory of that beauty.Editing
I adjusted the contrast and such a little bit in Photoshop but the picture came out better than I could've hoped for.In my camera bag
I always bring spare batteries, but I try not to take a lot out with me if I know I'm taking urban photography for long periods of time. I travel minimally so that I don't tire as quickly and I can be out taking pictures longer.Feedback
So much of this was being at the right place at the right time. Sometimes the stars align and bring you the perfect shot. I try to take a ton of the same photo just in case by some fluke, 14 of 15 of the same shot turn out blurry. I want one of them to be perfect and it's so rewarding when you upload the pictures and see that shot.
