Location
On a relaxing drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia, USA, we stumbled across the beautiful Mabry Mill.Time
We had been leisurely driving in the morning with the Blue Ridge Mountains as a wonderful backdrop, we stopped off at Mabry Mill and had a lovely authentic Pulled Pork lunch in the shaded cafe near to the Mill.Lighting
There was wonderful natural lighting, enhancing the reflections from the clear cool water.Equipment
This was a simple shot from my handheld camera at the time, with no tripod or other equipment.Inspiration
Mabry Mill is famed as a beautiful spot on the Blue Ridge Parkway route, there was a professional photographer working for Olympus there at the time, this inspired me to try and get a great shot.Editing
I ran the photo through LightroomIn my camera bag
My current equipment is either an Olympus EPL6 or a Canon superzoom depending on the type of shot.Feedback
Take your time and experiment with slightly different shots. Be patient to ensure you maximise the chances of a top shot.
