Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on Surkanda devi temple trek.

Time

Around 9 am(IST)

Lighting

I was above the clouds at this point. I was waiting for the moment when the light would seem to illuminate the clouds and create this heavenly scenery.

Equipment

Unfortunately my camera battery died at this point so I used a MI4 mobile phone.

Inspiration

Just the majesty of nature.

Editing

I reduced the highlights, increased the saturation and contrast a little bit and a little bit of structuring.

In my camera bag

A nikon d750 with 24-120mm lens and a 50mm lens. I also carry my mobile phone.

Feedback

When you are in a spot where you are above the clouds, it's best to take photos with overcast sun as that would create a sparkling illumination of clouds.
