Location
"The Twin" lake in Rila mountain, Bulgaria. The summit is called "Haramiata".Time
I was there wirh a couple of friend photogrpahers in a hut nearby. We rushed for the sunset at this famous place in Rila mountain walking on the ice. The light was not the best but at the beginning of the "blue hour" I made this photo. It was hard to do it as the lake was all covered with other photographers and I had to shout at them to get away from my frame while I was shooting.Lighting
My intention was to shoot the sunset over the summit, but since the lighting was not very good I stood and waited for the "Blue hour" to step in.Equipment
Canon EOS 6D, Canon EF 16-35 f/4L, tripod Manfrotto 190xpro3Inspiration
This is one of the most beautiful places in Bulgaria. Every landscape photographer wants to have a unique picture of it.Editing

Whenever shooting a reflection on a lake, search for symmetry - vertical or horizontal. Something important is the sky to be lighter and less saturated than its reflection in the water.
