Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken in Ukraine, on the Blyznytsia mountain at an altitude of 1800 metersTime
I was in botanical university practice with my group, we got up early in the morning and climbed the mountain for a long time in the heat. By the middle of the day, these wonderful clouds appeared. So we finally were able to rest calmly and I captured this beautiful momentLighting
On this day, I did not expect anything special from the photos, but the camera is always ready. Literally half an hour later clouds appeared, from which an amazing shadow fell. I grabbed the camera and began to shoot with a bated breath. This is a very rare lighting in this region. Usually the sky is clear or completely grayEquipment
I used my Nikon D5000, just bought it in 2015, 18-55 mm Kit lens, without tripod and flash, focal length 180/10, aperture f/9.0Inspiration
It was my first trip to Carpathian mountains, I adored it and I was totally struck by beauty and grandeur. It inspired me to capture a momentary phenomenon of this grandiose play of light and shadowEditing
Normally landscape photography requires a lot of processing. But this day the lighnt was perfect and I didn't use any special post-processingIn my camera bag
As an amateur I only have my camera Nikon D5000 with a 18-55 mm Kit lens. I still believe that the value of a photography is not in pixels, but in the moment and composition. Being a child, I loved taking pictures on an old film camera KodakFeedback
Come to the Carpathians for a few days (this photo was taken in the summer, but every season is special there), go for a walk every day and you will see how the weather and views are variable there. Do not miss the moment to capture something special. Just start your climbing in the morning.
