Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo coming down from a hike at Ciernes Picat in Switzerland.

Time

It was late afternoon and the shadows were long.

Lighting

It was the lighting that made that tree special. I have returned to the spot a number of times with that magical not there and the tree becomes quite ordinary.

Equipment

Canon SX40

Inspiration

The lighting on the large tree and on those in the distance and the cows in the shadows.

Editing

No

In my camera bag

These days I use a Fuji X-T3 with telephoto and wide angle lenses.

Feedback

Wait for the golden hour when possible.
