I Clicked this picture in Dal Lake, Srinagar, Kashmir-India.Time
This picture was clicked during sunset while I was on a “Shikara” ride (Kashmiri Rowing boats) on the magnificent Dal Lake, famous for its picturesque landscape and its floating market.Lighting
It was clicked during sunset and it was a wonderful silhouette effect , hence the idea of converting it to black n white, which further enhanced the subject of the picture.Equipment
I shot this on my Nikon D5200 lens and edited in black n white version using CYMERA app.Inspiration
Locals of Srinagar use "Shikaras" (rowing boats) as a mode of transport. While I was taking a comfortable shikara ride and enjoying the mesmerizing sunset and beauty of the mountains surrounding the lake, I found this Father and Son duo returning home after a tiresome day. The thought of it touched my heart. As what I was enjoying as a traveler, was a part of daily routine for the Father n Son duo.Editing
The picture was converted to black n white using "Cymera" App.In my camera bag
I Always pack my Nikon D5200 camera with a 18-55mm and 55-200mm Lens. And yes I carry lots of Memory cards and an extra Battery so that I dont miss out a good shot.Feedback
You don't need to be a professional photographer to click beautiful pics. If you love the nature around you, just need to have the eyes to see what others cannot
