Location
This photo was taken at fishing trip to the Rybinsk Reservoir (locals calls it the Sea) with my family.Time
This photo is the most favorite in my family. That day I woke up early in the morning (about 5 am), while everyone was asleep. I wanted to feel the silence of the surrounding untouched nature.Lighting
While walking I found that golden light of the sun covering everything around. The our dog, the Golden retriever, serenely sleep on the backyard. "This definitely worth to shoot", I thought.Equipment
This was shot on a Olympus E-520 with 14-42mm F/3.5-5.6 lens. No other equipment was involved.Inspiration
I like to shoot nature and people and usually I trying to find interesting places and natural light. I originally thought to make a series of fisherman photos, but this Golden hour was a gift and I couldn't skip it.Editing
Amazing, but it didn't need any post-processing.In my camera bag
The first thing I always take with me is my Nikon D750 50mm F/1.8. Most of streetphotos were made using it. Beside that I have Nikon 24-120mm F/4 lens. I use it with Manfrotto MK055XPRO3-3W to take pictures of the nature. All this a bit weighty, so for a walk I time to time take my old indestructible Olympus E-520 with a kit lens.Feedback
You can use your smartphone to check the time of sunrise (the Golden hour). Then just wake up an hour early and walk around. Often you do not need to travel to the edge of the world to take great photos, it could be waiting you even on your backyard.
