Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in a historic village called Gimmelwald in the Swiss Alps. I was visiting some family friends who live there and they took me for a hike around the mountains.

Time

I remember this perfectly. This was taken after lunch around 1PM. I was hiking the mountains after getting lunch and came across this valley where I took this image.

Lighting

This was taken with all natural lighting.

Equipment

I used a Nikon D3200. No other equipment was used.

Inspiration

This was my first time visiting Switzerland and it was the first time that I've ever truly had my breath taken away by something so beautiful. The natural beauty, scenery, smells and sounds were what inspired me to take this. I wanted to remember this moment forever and my photo was able to capture that for me.

Editing

I worked with the RAW image and played around with the highlights because it was an overcast day. Aside from that, nothing else was touched.

In my camera bag

The only equipment I keep on me is my camera. I like using natural lighting in my photos so they can speak for themselves. Sometimes I will carry a tripod on my and a remote clicker.

Feedback

Take your time and breathe in the beauty. If something strikes you, take the picture.
