Location
The photo was taken at a lake shore (Penza region, Russia)Time
It was a great summer day. I came to shoot Perseids shower earlier than I expected, so I decided to find a perfect place for taking photos.Lighting
I usually take sunsets and sunrises shots standing in front of the sun. But this time the sun was behind me, because my goal was a nightscape in another direction.Equipment
Nikon D7100, Nikon 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G, Manfrotto tripodInspiration
Suddenly I saw an incredible light reflecting in the water. There are no mountains in our region that's why all landscapes look minimalistic. I was surprised when I found that driftwood. It completed foreground creating a perfect composition.Editing
I simulated a long exposure in photoshop image stacking.In my camera bag
