Behind The Lens
Location
I took this image during the summer holiday in Austria. The vacation had a few very cold and rainy days. We went out hiking, during one of those days between mountains and forests, and mistTime
This image was shot during daylight, somewhere in the afternoon with rain clouds over the mountains, and fog crawling between the trees on the slopes of the mountain.Lighting
There isn't much to tell about the light. There were many clouds and surprisingly a lot of light to work with, perhaps because it was mid summer and in the afternoon. I used ISO400 and f/7.1 and ended up with a fast shutterspeed of 1/800.Equipment
For this shot I used a Sony A9 camera, with a Sony 100-400mm lens. I was reviewing this camera and used it during our holiday in Austria. This shot was hand held.Inspiration
I love the mood of rainy days, mountains and mist. Although it wasn't a real summer holiday situation, I enjoyed the mood and the mystic situations.Editing
I used Lightroom to process the image. For this shot I needed to add a bit of contrast. That's all.In my camera bag
I use Canon myself, with a set of lenses that vary depending on the subject I am going to shoot. During our holiday I also had my Canon EOS 5D mark IV with me, but I used the Sony A9 practically all the time. I had to review it, after all.Feedback
Don't stay indoors during rainy days.
