Location
This photo was taken in the Peak district of United Kingdom. More precisely on the Stanage ridge a few miles from Sheffield.Time
It was Sunday evening and I was desperate to go for a walk as the weekend was too busy to go out. I usually carry my camera for these walks to give me some exercise and you never know when the right opportunity props up. I was returning back and it was dull and cloudy but suddenly the cloud gave way to the setting sun. The moment lasted for only a few minutes but was beautiful.Lighting
I waited a little bit for the sun to just peep through the cloud as I thought this will be less bright.Equipment
I use Canon EOS600D with UV filter and it was handheld.Inspiration
The distant sunset and a path leading towards it really appealed to me. I deliberately included the sheep. The evening light shining on them created a beautiful image.Editing
I use minimal processing and used a free software to reduce the exposure and change the clarity.In my camera bag
I pack my Canon EOS 660D and have Tamron 18-270mm lens attached to it all the times! I also keep a brush to clean the lens, a waterproof cover, emergency poncho and spare battery.Feedback
