Location
The photo was taken at the Klöntalersee, Glarus, Switzerland. Its a small lake, at that time with just a little water. Me and my family went there to search fossils, but because a bigger river, we could not go to the side where its possible to find fossils.Time
it was sunset time but full of clouds instead a sunset.. i did not had a tripod, the camera i had at that day with me is very bad with iso noise when it starts to be darker, just tried to take the photo before it was to dark to shot. But i am happy with the result.Lighting
I like the light reflection in the water and also how the shadows from the rocks playing in the shot. so beautiful reflection and place to show to others.Equipment
canon 100d EF-S10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM 10mm 1/13 s f/3.5 ISO/Film400Inspiration
On the way home, we passed the other part of the lake, searching for a place to take sunset pictures. the day was so beautiful and at sunset time full of clouds. My son was running behind frogs, i was running behind him, just stopped while i saw this beautiful rocks and reflections in the water.Editing
Even it was such a great day, i liked to edit this shot in a gloomy dusk style. 1 raw, playing with the contrast and the color intensity.In my camera bag

Just walk with open eyes around. like in a movie, the view you have changes always. even the same place is different at a different day.. when i see a beautiful view, i take a shot, looking a it to see if maybe some little different perspective makes the photo more beautiful..
