Location
I took this photo in the Risnjak National Park, Croatia. Closer location is village Mrzla vodica or lake with a little spot.Time
This is certainly one of my favorite photos. I went one afternoon to a national park, which is about fifty miles from the city I live in. It was late autumn and the weather was very calm, which proved to be very important to this photo. I had a tripod but I did not use it because there was enough light to allow me a solid shutter speed. As soon as I saw the blue boat and its reflection on the surface of the lake, I knew I had a good shot. It was only to determine the composition, and the rest was just a matter of routine.Lighting
As far as light is concerned, I have already said it is important that it is soft and that it does not make you strong shadows. Fairly good light is also an unimaginably important factor in making a quality photo. So think about where you are going to shoot, as well as the onslaught that day or year gives you the best light for what you are planning to record. If light is not the way you expected it or the way you need it then you should certainly consider artificial lighting to make your photos as good as possible.Equipment

to capture such places you do not need a special inspiration. The stick of nature is enough to get ideas for the photos ..Editing
For processing this photo I have been using the programs I usually use for post processing. I used Lightroom first, and later I exported the photo to Ps and let the details I made in HDR efexPro2In my camera bag
in my bag when I go to the recording, I must wear three lenses. One wide angle, one standard and one telephoto lens. If I go for a longer trip or vacation, or in a remote place I wear another camera because I have two. Of course it is a mandatory part of the equipment and the tripod. If I think I'm going to find interesting insects, or flowers in the bag and put the lens for the macro shots. Other common things like cleaning knife, filters, blades and the like are the others.Feedback
My advice to capturing such and similar photos would be the following. Take a shot when the light is "soft." So late in the afternoon or early in the morning. It is important that the sun is not too long before it creates great shadows. Further to capturing the reflection of nature or animals and the surface of the lake, it is very important that the weather is calm and windless. Of course, it's better to use a tripod, but if you have enough of the good and good equipment (camera and lenses) that allow you to trip the tripod faster and is not obligated. I usually like when there are clouds in the sky as this makes the picture a nicer one. You should be patient and carefully choose the best location. If you do all this, I'm sure you will have beautiful and quality shots.
