NZ is an amazingly beautiful country. This is a lovely shot.

Behind The Lens

Location

Lake Wanaka South Island of New Zealand

Time

Just after dawn in the beginning of our Summer

Lighting

The lighting was soft as it was a cloudy morning but there were patches of sunlight peeking through and i managed to capture this shot while it was lit up by the sun

Equipment

I used a Sony A7r2 with my Sony 70-200mm f4, i used a ND filter with a slow shutter speed on a tripod to smooth out the water.

Inspiration

The beautiful simple minimalistic scene of the willow isolated in the lake, Its a very popular photo spot shot by many photographers around the world who traveled to NZ

Editing

Nothing too drastic just saturation adjustments

In my camera bag

I always have my Sony 16-35mm f4 and a Sony 70-200mm f4 also a Sony 24-105mm these 3 lenses cover most of my photography needs i have a Sony 90mm macro as i like to dabble in this type of photography as well as Landscape which is my first passion

Feedback

The soft light of the blue hours are a must for this type of work and a ND filter i find very useful for photographing water
