Location
I had a bricklaying job to do for a friend, so had got up early and driven to their estate. While working on the top of the wall I realised that the low-lying mist and the rising sun would make a super picture. Unfortunately (and most unusually for me) having left home early, and only going to work, I had forgotten to throw my camera bag into my van. This shot, I am almost ashamed to say, was therefore taken on my mobile 'phone.Time
About 7am.Lighting
Purerly using natural light.Equipment
Sadly, just a mobile 'phone. Sad, when I've got hundreds of pounds of bodies and lenses at home. Still, it shows what even a most basic 'camera' can do.Inspiration
The beauty of the scene.Editing
No, the image was good enough not to need to enhance it artificially.In my camera bag
Sony body, sigma 10-20 and 20-200, sony 500. Those cover most eventualities. If I'm aiming for a specific type of shot, I've a wide variety of prime lenses to use too.Feedback
Get up early, keep your eyes open, and always make sure you've got some type of camera on you at all times!
