Location
This photo was taken in Nepal, one of the ancient buildings and colleges of Nepal.Time
This is one of my favorite images. I still remember, walking around that busy road of the king's way and try to find the best spot to take this image. This image was taken on Friday, 3 April 2015 around 5:15 pm in full moon day.Lighting
I wanted this image on long exposure in full moon day and to draw the viewers into a clock tower (Ghanta Ghar) on that day. There was some beautiful light from the moon on to that tower. I decided that would be a great way to do a long exposure and making the story even more interesting.Equipment
This was shot on a Canon 60D, with an 18-55mm f/3.5 lens and tripod was used to take this imageInspiration
I was looking for a nice ancient place to take a long exposure shot on a full moon day. I choose that place because it was quite near to my house and I had my friend with me that night.Editing
Usually, this kind of photography requires a lot of post-processing. In this image, I took three different shots (one for the long exposure, other shots for the clock tower, and last shots for the full moon). Then I proceeded to merge 3 raw images using masks in photoshop.In my camera bag
When I started photography I used to have Canon 60D, with an 18-55mm f/3.5 lens and Canon 50mm 1.2 prime. Then I bought Canon 5D mark iii 24-70mm f/2.8 and Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 because it was the best camera it had that particular year. Now I have Canon 5Dsr and Sony7r3 with Zeiss 16-35mm 2.8 and Zeiss 55mm f/1.8 prime in my bag.Feedback
The most important things in the landscape is to have patience in you and have to wait for the right time and right place to take a beautiful image
