Behind The Lens

Location

Lake Bulusan in the Philippines. It lies at the heart of Bulusan Volcano National Park

Time

8:00 AM

Lighting

It's all natural after a small downpour

Equipment

Canon 5DMK3, 16-35mm F2.8 lens, Lee 3-stop ND filter and Manfrotto tripod

Inspiration

The beauty of the lake and the active volcano in the background.

Editing

Yes. This is 3 bracketed shots and blended with LR/Enfuse Lightroom plugin.

In my camera bag

This was a vacation/photography tour with friends. Canon 5DMK3, 16-35mm F2.8, 70-200mm F2.8 lens. Lee filters and Manfrotto tripod

Feedback

This is not a difficult shot as the subject doesn't move. But you need to study the best spot and learn where to get the best focus (i focused on 1/3 closest of the frame at F8). To get the stillness of the water, you need to have a long shutter and on bright sunny day ND filters will help you to achieve that.
