Location
This shot was taken at Milarrochy Bay which is on the eastern shores of Loch Lomond, Scotland.Time
This was taken around 3.30 in the afternoon on November 2018. I had been taking shots from various locations around the loch and this was one of the last areas I visited that day.Lighting
No flash or artificial lighting was used on this shot, just simply daylight. However it is a long exposure shot of 60 seconds with an aperture of f13 and low ISO of 64.Equipment
Camera used was my Nikon D850 with a Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 G2 lens set at 24mm. The camera was on a tripod for this 60 second long exposure shot using an ND 1000 filter.Inspiration
I was taking shots at various locations around the loch. I happened to find this location on the east side of the loch. I had no idea this location, with the tree, existed. It has no doubt been shot many times in the past but this was my first visit to the location and I felt fortunate that it was there for me to take the shot.Editing
I do my post work in old versions of Photoshop and Lightroom. I made a few tweeks to bring out the autumn/winter colours of the distant trees and adjusted the contrast a little.In my camera bag
Generally I have my Nikon D850. I usually have my 24-70 f2.8 Tamron G2 lens as well as the 70-200 f2.8 G2 lenses. I carry my Nikon SB-910 speedlight. I also have my Black Rapid strap, spare batteries for both the camera and the speedlight and I also have a few ND filters. Although not in the bag, I tend to have a tripod handy.Feedback
I was fortunate to find this location. I feel that having a variety of items in the bag helps to prepare for most situations but weight can sometimes be an issue.
