Behind The Lens

Location

It’s taken in Snowdonia national park in Llanberis on the shore's or Llyn Pendarn in Wales.

Time

It was early morning spring time

Lighting

Try and get there in the golden hour or just before the sun rises as it rises down far end of the lake if your lucky on clear day,

Equipment

This was a 70d taken on the kit lens on a tripod, no flash just adjust the shutter time to get the desired look your after. Use your creativity and do something different.

Inspiration

I've seen this tree on some websites and wanted to get my own image in my own style, packed up my bag and got its location and went, got there and the weather was not the best but waited and it all calmed down, took the snap and was happy with the result, I will be taking it again at some point.

Editing

Just some general editing to bring out the clouds and give the location the justice it deserves. Changed it to black and white as I think it looks way better then in colour.

In my camera bag

I carry a M50 mirrorless and a DS1 with a couple of lens, a tripod, some wipes, battery's and other general item needed,

Feedback

Take your time and wait for the correct look your after, this can be 5 minutes to 5 hours just have patience and you will be rewarded with the photo you want, Don't be afraid of trying different things, above all enjoy and take loads of photo's at o the location as i will guarantee the first few you won't like, unless your lucky and get the shot you want first few times.
