Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo at my Toscane holidays. We were living in an old stone house among vineyards and olive trees, with a great view of a Val d'Orcia. It was in august, imagine hot summer in inland Toscany... the only moments of the day when the heat wasn't too tough were early morning and the evenings.Time
I woke up that morning early, between 5 and 6 in the morning, just for the sunrise.Lighting
The sun was setting up enlighting the valley, photo taken against the ligth.Equipment
Canon 400d with the 75-300 lens, on tripod, so that I could take my time for the composition.Inspiration
Just the view, the light, it was a magic moment.Editing
A little bit of post-processing, just to contrast some parts of the image to make them more relevant.In my camera bag
A wide angle zoom, a 50mm taht opens wide, sometimes the long zoom like 75-300, recently also a small analog rangefinder with 40mm lens.Feedback
Wake up early.
