Location
This photo was shot in the Lake Ohrid (Macedonia), right in front of my home.Time
Date/Time Original 27/05/2011 15:25:06Lighting
All of it: Shutter Speed:1/500 s, f/2.8, ISO 320, 0.00 eV, Metering Mode: Pattern, Flash: Auto, Did not fire, Focal Length: 6.2 mmEquipment
Canon PowerShot D10, used by hand with no added equipment.Inspiration
The water snakes are just a small part of the incredible Lake Eco-system, and of course always worth noting and photographing. It's all the inspiration one needs!Editing
The original photo only needed some crop and a tweak in the contrast. Nothing else was necessary.In my camera bag
I don't need any bag, and usually prefer to keep my camera in my hand, around the neck etc. The small PowerShot D10 is also comfy in any pocket.Feedback
Have your camera waterproof, keep it near to hand, and keep your eyes peeled for such themes! You will also need a bit of luck, and a good light! Enjoy!
