Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo during the dawn in Rocca Calascio Fortress, in Abruzzo, Italy. Is a stunning view reachable after few minutes of walking on the mountain from its little town a little bit below it.

Time

Early early early morning the wake up and than run up the mountain to catch this spectacular view

Lighting

I think this is the best moment to shot the Fortress. This lights gives the propre atmosphere of the Middle Ages and the Lady Hawke movie

Equipment

I just used my Nikon D7200, Tokina 11-16mm F2.8 and manual double exposure. No more...

Inspiration

I was inpired by the view and the atmosphere of this place on the top of the mountains

Editing

I just used the manual double exposure skill to improve the lights and the shadows together

In my camera bag

My D7200, mini-tripode, several lens, filter ND1000 and polarizer, cleaning stuff.

Feedback

The only thing that really you need is the passion, love, to take at this moment of the days, for photography. Wake up and go to take stunning pics. Nothing more ;)
