Location
This photo was taken atop of a pagoda in Old Bagan.Time
Sunrise, I remember waking up at 4am and heading to the location with a couple of friends I just met at the hostel. Went to rent a couple of electric bikes across the street and headed into the night.Lighting
Sunrises in Bagan are surreal, every single day I stayed there we would get something amazing. This mixture of morning mist and dust give a magical sensation.Equipment
I used my Fuji X-T1 and a 50-140mm 2.8 lens.Inspiration
I saw the immense potential that location had and so I went there every day for several mornings to try and get a picture that would make people fall in love with the place.Editing
Almost no post-processing was required, it really looks just like that. The only thing I did was clear dust spots since my sensor was quite filthy after several months of traveling.In my camera bag
In my every day bag I carry a Fuji X100s but whenever I embark myself on a several day trip abroad my Fuji X-t1 will always be with me as well as a 23mm 1.4 and 50-140mm 2.8, remote shutter, tripod and a couple of spare batteries.Feedback
Pursue that photo, go back over and over and over again to try and take the perfect picture for you. We as photographers most of the time need to adapt to the environment and completely understand that we may or may not get the picture we want. Just keep on trying.
