Nothing else but a gopro and a steady handgripInspiration
This photo features a unique view over the valley, you can see the city of Chamonix and the close proximity of the Mt-Blanc just in the center. You can also see the ice sea on the left of the picture.Editing
Yes i did post-process this photo in photoshop. The settings used on the gopro gave me a Flat image, i simply used the HDR tool in photoshop to give so relief in the clouds and the mountains, and adjusted the brightness, contrast and saturation aswell to achieve this render.In my camera bag
I normally use a 5D mark2, simply with a 24/70 f2.8 most of the time, i don't like travelling with too much as it makes the bag heavier. I took this while i was paragliding so i only brought my gopro with me.Feedback
No really any advices, i'd tend to say that landscapes pictures are better shop with wide angles, but some great shots can be made with pretty much anything.
