Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the Drakensberg mountains in South Africa.

Time

This was taken at dawn, my favourite time of the day for observing nature and the natural light.

Lighting

I was very fortunate as I had no tripod because I was clambering up and down steep slopes in the hot hills of the mountains.

Equipment

PENTAX *ist D lens - smc PENTAX-FA 28-80mm F3.5-4.7

Inspiration

The beautiful, warm, soft, golden sunlight almost forced me to lift my camera to the skies.

Editing

No real post processing as I only had / have iPhoto / Photo on my computer.

In my camera bag

Pentax K5 and K10 and a variety of lenses.

Feedback

Use a tripod!
