Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in "Maggia Valley" in the south of Switzerland. It is a very popular place for hiking, swimming and diving. The water is very clear and not too deep.

Time

It was a little cloudy afternoon, however due to the clouds I could see the bottom of the riverbed and did not have any reflection.

Lighting

All natural light, nothing artificial.

Equipment

The shot is a simple iPhone photo, no tripod, no flash.

Inspiration

The power of nature and time. Water formed these rocks time over time. The whole riverbed is also covered with rocks this is why the water can stay so clear.

Editing

The photo is straight out of camera, there is no post-production

In my camera bag

I have my iPhone always with me and if planning to take photos a Canon 6D with 180mm macro or 24-70 wide angle.

Feedback

You never know when the perfect moment finds you.
