Location
I took this photo in the wild nature fields, in Lithuania.Time
I remember that we (me and my good friend) were traveling to search for locations around Vilnius (capital of Lithuania) for photographing. And we found some awesome fields of lupines. Never seen such beautiful lupines field enywhere else in Lithuania. And also it was the first time I was photographing them. Many years I wanted to capture the beauty of those georgeos flowers. And finally I found and accomplished this oportunityLighting
The light was more than good. It was perfect. I was dreaming about catching light like this.Equipment
Canon EOS 6D + Canon II EF 50mm f/1,8 and a tripod.Inspiration
Without the clouds and light this picture would be not so interesting. The light itself inspired me. It was natural painting of Nature, I just had to compose and combine all elements in one shot. That's how this shot was born.Editing
Yes I post-processed it. When I'm editing my pictures I always balance colors, details, lights and shadows. First I used adobe lightroom to use some RAW adjustments. Then I post-processed it in Adobe Photoshop to extract final details, like darken the sky or sharpen the foreground.In my camera bag
Usually I have one Camera (Canon EOS 6D) and 4 lenses of different focal length (Canon EF II 50mm, f/1.8, Sigma APO 150mm f/2.8 Macro USM, Canon EF 17-40 f/4.0, Canon EF 400mm f/4) and a Manfrotto tripod.Feedback
It's about seeking for inspiration. If you like to travel, searching for places, you just have to wait for good light and you'll see similar views. And it will be worth it.
