Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in northern Poland, two hundred kilometers from the Baltic Sea. This place is famous for its huge number of lakes, beautiful forests, rich flora and fauna. This is a landscape shot. The photo shows one of the lakes within the city of Mragovo, a wonderful recreation area for residents and guests of the city.

Time

This photo has been stored in the gallery of my old phone for a long time. I cherished it as a memory of the wonderful places that have remained in my heart forever. It was one of the November evenings when I hurried to the supermarket after work. The winter day is very short, my path, as always, passed over the lake and suddenly ... An amazing view, filled with the fantastic energy of nature opened for my eyes. It was a moment that cannot be forgotten.

Lighting

The lighting in the photo is completely natural. The last rays of the sun illuminated the surface of the lake, creating this incredible color in shades of blue. Sometimes we are powerless to create something better, we rely on someone who is stronger than us - in this case, the actions of nature were unique. We are just the ones who keep it to show others we live in a world full of wonders. It is necessary to admit loss and surrender to the mercy of nature, she won.

Equipment

These were my first attempts as a photographer. This shot was taken with the camera of my old Fly phone. That's all that was at hand at that moment

Inspiration

I am a huge supporter of unity with nature. It is something that inspires, heals the soul and the body. Fresh air. The constant presence of rich bright or amazing pastel, warm or cold colors, depending on the season. Water, trees, birds, animals ... What else can be said? I couldn't pass by when I saw this fantastic landscape ... This moment of the autumn sunset, the spectacle connected with these evening hours touched the depths of my soul.

Editing

The lighting is natural, the shooting took place in natural conditions. Without any changes.

In my camera bag

Since photography is only my hobby, I usually use the cameras of my phones that are in my bag, although I always prefer phones with a good quality camera. Everything else comes out automatically: natural light or artificial lighting, if it is not shooting in nature. Some correction with a photo editor installed on my laptop and nothing more. A hobby to which I give my time, free from the main work.

Feedback

My advice for those who want to take photos: do not be afraid to do it, do not be afraid to show it to others, try to experiment, keep learning, try to improve yourself in this direction. Photography is a very important thing, it gives us a chance to remember important moments of our lives or fantastic scenes of nature, whether it is forest, water, sand, etc. Shooting in the city, in the countryside, in the mountains, at sea - all this can give us great pleasure and give it to others. So let's take photos and be sure - we are the best! Remember, the camera should always be with you, do not miss the chance to make the best photo in your life. Good luck to you all.
