Behind The Lens

Location

Kvernufoss waterfall in the south of Iceland. We had just visited the famous Skogafoss, but with tour buses dropping of hourds at a time, its difficult to get a shot without tourists and selfie sticks in the view. Luckily, a friend knew of this hidden waterfall a short hike away, all to ourselves at that moment. Magic.

Time

Mid afternoon, on an overcast early March day. There in southern Iceland the temps were much warmer than earlier treks in the north.

Lighting

Overcast conditions, so all natural light.

Equipment

Canon 5D III, 16-15mm lens.

Inspiration

There is no lack of photographic inspiration in Iceland!

Editing

Minimal post processing of this image was all on Lightroom.

In my camera bag

Full frame dSLR, wide angle zoom, mid range zoom, and telephoto zoom

Feedback

A tripod is a must, and a wide angle if up close to tell the entire story.
