Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in Okatse Canyon - Georgia (country) where I had one of the most interesting trips, partly because they have not yet learned english and have forgotten russian language, half of the time I could not understand what or when is going to happen, even when trying to organise a trip to this place.

Time

Not sure, could be around luch time but after stopping in a local shop where I was offered to try local chacha my memories are a blur, this peach chaha was 70% alcohol, followed by some local herbal remedies.

Lighting

It was a hot and humid day with a cloud cover.

Equipment

I used Canon 6d and a rokinon 14mm f2.8 lens

Inspiration

When I walked up the steps and looked down I remembered my childhood fear of heights and how I overcame it, by climbing over a wieving towers railing and looking down, I thoght I will recreate this without climbing over this rusty railing, It took a few tries, I did not want people in the photo, but they just kept coming.

Editing

Just a bit of color correction added detail and vibrance, nothing else.

In my camera bag

I usually have a small travel tripod, canon 6d, my go to Rokinon 14mm f 2.8 lens, a 50mm f1.8 and a cheap sigma DG 70-300mm lens along with a few filters, camera remote and some cleaning equipment for when the camera gets all dusty on the inside.

Feedback

Dont drop the camera and dont attempt it if you are scared of heights.
