Location
Photo was taken on Savica lakes - in Zagreb, Croatia.Time
Early in the morning. I wish it was taken earlier, but it needs some time to get there.Lighting
Yeah. In that particular moment light was perfect. Because of the clouds. The rest of the morning - not so good.Equipment
Pentax K-5 and (borrowed) Pentax-DA 10-17mm F3.5-4.5 Fish-Eye lens. No tripod on this photo, with Pentax I do bracketing handheld - it is fast enough. But in some situations, tripod is irreplaceable.Inspiration
Nothing really. Savica lakes are inspirational by itself, especially in the morning. I recommend them if you're close.Editing
Yes - three photos bracketed and processed in Lightroom, then merged in Photomatix, then processed again as TIFF in Lightroom.In my camera bag
Depends on situation. Now I have three Pentax cameras; K-5 IIS, K-3 and newer K-70. Lots of manual lenses, Pentax DA 50mm f/1.8, Tamron 70-200 f/2,8, Samyang 8mm f/3.5 and my faithful Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 non VC which works much better now because of incredible dynamic range of Pentax cameras.Feedback
For me, it's very important to have a camera in which you can really enjoy. And I am enjoying in Pentax cameras a lot. Any wide lens sharp enough and fast enough can do the trick. Take a sturdy tripod if you don't have a fast camera and do the bracketing occasionally! :)
