What an incredibly beautiful photograph, great composition. The reflection of the mountain on the right leads your eye into the photo. Very nice work!

Location
This photograph was taken on the shore of Lake Nordenskjold, on one of the trails that run through Torres del Paine National Park in Chilean Patagonia.Time
It was taken in the middle of the afternoon, around 5:00 p.m.Lighting
Chilean Patagonia has a fickle climate, in two hours it can change significantly from sunny to rainy, the clouds that cover the sky change the light conditions quickly and therefore one must be prepared to capture images at all timesEquipment
Nikon D3s, Tokina 16-28mm f2.8Inspiration
The surprising images that can be seen in Patagonia are a spectacle in themselves, living the moment of being able to contemplate how nature passes unchanged to us and being able to capture ephemeral moments of that is a unique opportunity that is never repeated, the reflections, colors, shapes, remind us how small we are within a large ecosystemEditing
Only basic develop in Lightroom (saturation, contrast, exposure, clarity)In my camera bag
Actually, a Sony a7r IV and Sony a7s II. Lenses 16-35mm f2.8 GM and 100-400mm GM. Sirui Tripod, one ND10 Nisi Filter, remote control, and a lot of useless equipment :)Feedback
never lose the capacity for wonder, look with the eyes of a child, be attentive, have a lot of patience, know your equipment and how to take advantage of it, and most importantly, enjoy the moment
