Location
This photo of Half Dome in Yosemite National Park was taken from Sentinel bridge, during Thanksgiving weekend 2016.Time
This photo was taken in the late morning.Lighting
Natural light, no flashes used.Equipment
Camera: 5D Mark IV set at 1/20s ISO 100 Lens: EF70-200f2.8 at 70MM f16 Benro tripod Circular Polarizer filterInspiration
Yosemite Valley is magical. Every turn you take, there is an amazing view to capture. I was inspired by the views of Half Dome and the fall foliage.Editing
I used Lightroom to make minor adjustments to bring out more detail in the shadows and colors.In my camera bag
This particular weekend I had rented the 5D Mark IV as my main body. Normally I pack my 3 core lenses, Canon EF17-40 f4, EF24-105 f4 and EF70-200 f2.8. My main camera body is a Canon 6D. I also use Lee filters, timer/remote release, flashlight, Canon 600 EX flash with spare batteries, extra camera batteries and memory cards. I also carry a Mophie juice pack in case my phone dies and Benro GC258F with G2 ball head.Feedback
Its hard not to find a photo opportunity in Yosemite, what I can say is, to beat the crowds you must get there early in the morning and if you want to good spot for sunset its also a good idea to pick a spot early in the afternoon, as some of the popular spots can get crowded.
