Location
This was shot in South AfricaTime
Early morningLighting
This was in summer and in the mornings the air can be very clean and brightEquipment
Nikon D70 with the kit lens 18-70mmInspiration
As the garden centre just turned the sprinklers off, I saw the Rose garden, and knew with water there should be something worth shooting, and I was right.Editing
I am a hardened Lightroom user and have almost no idea of interest in using much else, This was done on version 2 so not much you could back then, No I would not try and change anything with the newer versions. I prefer to try and shoot better than spend hours in postIn my camera bag
When this was shot all I had was the D70 and kit lens, now I have a lot more but still own the D70 and lens maybe one day I will try and get another one using the same gear.Feedback
I think this was one of those shots where everything was 100% .But the key part is having the light at the right angle so early mornings are best of this as the air is normally clean and still, if you have a tripod use it, they a pain but worth it. And if there is one thing I can pass on is to "see" light and what it does, master that the rest is easy.
