Location
This photo was taken in the Nikita Arboretum's Adventure Park near Yalta, Crimea, Ukraine. I always enjoy shooting landscapes and nature, and this is one the results...Time
We were walking around many interesting and beautiful plants and sculptures made of plants one day in summer... I shot this picture on occasion, didn't even expecting it to be somewhat special... Only when I got back home and saw it on the computer, I realized it was a remarkable photo...Lighting
Nothing special about lighting: natural sunlight...Equipment
I used Pentax K-X digital camera and manual Takumar Bayonet 135mm f2,5 lens, handheldInspiration
It was just a good mood to take pictures, it was so many special and beautiful plants around there, so I just wanted to shoot as much of them, as possible... Yet, no too much, trying to find the most special ones, an ideal view angle, and perfect lighting...Editing
Just a slight color correction in LightroomIn my camera bag
When I shoot digital, I have Pentax K-X (now changed it to K-5), and several manual lenses from SMC Pentax-M series: 28mm f2.8; 50mm f1.4; 135mm f2.5Feedback
Try to work with three things: Sun, a compass, and a watch... You just have to be in the right place and time... and hope for a good weather :)
