Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in Lokot town, Czechia. This is ancient castle on the rock. There are old church and porcelain factory nearby.

Time

At the the end of the excursion, along towards evening this point of view opened suddenly for me.

Lighting

The sun went down and long shadows in connection with bright sunshine gave some mystique and painterliness to the castle..

Equipment

I have with me only Nikon D60 with 18-200 lens.

Inspiration

Primarily black goats hanging on to the rock attract my attention. Castle curators use them instead of haymowers on this step slope. At some time congery of rather massive cloud coverage and as yet clear sunlight created necessary decorative design of ancient complex.

Editing

I use very simple post-processing redactor (ACDsee) to correct colors, sharpness, brightness and to crop of image.

In my camera bag

Beside of my camera with 18-200 lens sometimes I take with me light weight tripod and FinePix Z700EXR camera.

Feedback

I think that in such cases the main thing is to decide on or wait until the correct illumination.
