Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken by me in one of the most beautiful places in my small motherland - Karachay-Cherkessia. This lake is called Tumanly KolTime
The picture was taken in the early evening. Time of year - fall, October.Lighting
probably, the audience liked the lighting in the picture. It is very beautiful. But at the same time is very difficult. Tops of the mountains were covered still bright setting sun, while at the same time, the valley was already in deep shadow. Such a large range of brightness managed to convey using the magnificent sensor medium format camera.Equipment
medium format camera Pentax 645z, HD PENTAX-DA645 28-45mm f/4.5 ED AW SR LensInspiration
constant inspiration for me is the nature of my native Karachai-Cherkessia and the entire Caucasus. This lake -One of the most popular places.Editing
